How to remove persistent ghost emojis from the recently used list on iPhone?

5 ghost emojis won’t leave my recently used emojis, even when I use others the others go away if not used for a few days but the ghosts keep staying where they are. I have never used a ghost emoji so it is odd to say the least

To improve my understanding of the phenomenon, it would be highly beneficial if you could share a full screenshot (Do not crop it). Visual representations carry a greater impact than written descriptions.


Please remember that this is a public forum, so when attaching a screenshot, please avoid including any personal credentials such as IP addresses, card details, email IDs, Apple IDs, IMEI numbers, serial numbers, phone numbers, order IDs, or any identifiable location information if you are sharing a map.



With the limited information that you have provided, It is hard to even guess the problems faced by you.
