2)   Open the program and type in this exact number sequence:  9876543.21
 
3)   Tap the “Return” key and close the Spell Number program
 
4)   Go to Settings on your iPhone and open the following menus:
 
    General / Keyboard / International Keyboards / Japanese
 
5)   Turn the Emoji tab to “On” and exit settings
 
6)   Now return to PEEK and when you go to type a message, you’ll see a Globe icon next to the space bar. Open this to find hundreds of great icons to use in your messaging.  Be sure to look at every category and scroll through each one to see all the icons.

  1. Thank YOU guys!

    I really enjoy this new cool app on my iPhone.
    And emojis give messaging in general a pleasant sensation, especially when PEEKing!

    Emoji keyboard is in FW 2.2 and everybody has it, but Apple unlocked it just for Japanese users.

    I found that weird application on the italian AppStore chart and read the reviews with the instructions to get Emoji keyboard available for everyone.

    And then, well you know what happened next.

    :) guys, keep it black, keep it simple.

    I love the design of this app, the coloured dots and the black layout.

    In addition to photosharing you gave fun messaging and gps features. That's cool all in one app!

    I will talk about it in italian websites and forums so the community can grow bigger and bigger.

    Pls consider my email ic4ropan[at]gmail.com in case you may need or even just tell me something. I will be glad to help.

    Thank you again for this great app!
