My emojis on samsung keyboard are all wrong. When ever I press an emoji the wrong emoji pops up. Is anyone else experiencing this ??

Hello, thanks for reaching out! I can see how annoying it is to use the incorrect emojis when typing! The first thing to try is resetting the keyboard. 
From your Settings menu, go to General management.
Select Samsung Keyboard settings.
Select Reset to default settings > Reset keyboard settings.

If that doesn't help, try the emojis in Safe mode, to see if a third-party application may be interfering: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00062983/
If it works in Safe mode, then uninstall applications until emojis work as intended. 

Lastly, if the troubleshooting does not help, send an error report via Samsung Members app: https://www.samsung.com/ae/support/mobile-devices/raising-an-error-report-via-samsung-members-app/

I'm having the same issue, with stock keyboard and 3rd party! Only since the August 2024 update. Since it's with more than one keyboard, I'm sure it's the update, not the data. My recipients are seeing the correct emoji, but on my side, theirs and mine are wrong.
