Custom keyboard with emoji (like kimoji)?

I was wondering how the KIMOJI works? I read everywhere that you can only create custom keyboards which insert text, not custom emoji.

Any ideas?

I actually had been wondering how to create a custom keyboard extension inspired by KIMOJI for stickers and just finished writing a response here: Add Stickers in Custom KeyBoard Extension

The only modification I would suggest is that instead of using UIViews to hold a few buttons, you may want to try holding many stickers in a UICollectionView. The KIMOJI app allows you to scroll horizontally through the stickers/emoji and a UICollectionView would allow you that functionality.

I hope this helps.
