+# MSC4347: Emoji verification images
+
+I propose supplying exact images to be used within emoji verification, to avoid
+confusion for users where clients use different emoji fonts.
+
+## Motivation
+
+During device or user verification, if the [emoji method of SAS
+verification](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.15/client-server-api/#sas-method-emoji)
+is used, users are asked to compare two lists of emoji characters across two
+devices.
+
+Clients present these emoji to the user with a message like "Confirm that the
+emojis below match those shown on your other session".
+
+The spec provides words to describe each character in various languages, and
+also a Unicode code point for each character. Different devices and applications
+render these characters differently, based on the fonts they have available.
+
+This causes confusion: especially for a user who has never seen this before, it
+is not clear what exactly is being asked. (For all they know the list of symbols
+is always the same and the important point is whether the font/rendering styles
+are identical!)
+
+I suggest that a standard set of images and a standard layout to display them
+will help users make a quick and confident judgement of whether they are the
+same or different.
+
+## Proposal
+
+I propose providing a fixed set of images to use for emoji verification, and
+recommending a fixed layout for display on screen.
+
+### Changes to the emoji table
+
+Currently the spec provides Unicode code points of emoji for each
+number 0-63 along with translated names. It also provides this information as
+JSON at a well-known URL
+(`https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec/blob/main/data-definitions/sas-emoji.json`).
+
+The table within the spec and the JSON file would be adjusted to add links to
+URLs like:
+
+`https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec/blob/main/data-definitions/sas-emoji/00.svg`
+
+...
+
+`https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec/blob/main/data-definitions/sas-emoji/63.svg`
+
+And the spec would supply images at these URLs.
+
+I propose including both SVG and PNG format images, so `sas-emoji.json` would
+contain entries like this:
+
+```
+{
+  "number": 4,
+  "emoji": "🦄",
+  "svg": "https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec/blob/main/data-definitions/sas-emoji/04.svg",
+  "png": "https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec/blob/main/data-definitions/sas-emoji/04.png"
+  "description": "Unicorn",
+  "unicode": "U+1F984",
+  "translated_descriptions": {
+    "ar": "حصان وحيد القرن",
+    "bg": "Еднорог",
+    "ca": "Unicorn",
+    ...
+  }
+},
+```
+
+### Changes to the spec wording
+
+I propose updating the wording of the spec to say graphical clients SHOULD
+include copies of these images in their distributions and display them instead
+of the corresponding Unicode code points rendered using a font. They can choose
+freely whether to use SVG or PNG images, but prefer SVG if both are possible.
+
+I also propose that graphical clients SHOULD display these images in two rows,
+centred vertically, with 4 images on the first row and 3 images on the second,
+with the local translation of the corresponding word below each image.
+
+### Non-graphical clients
+
+Non-graphical clients or other clients that are unable to use the supplied
+images may continue to use Unicode code points as before.
+
+### Sourcing the images
+
+I propose taking a snapshot of the relevant images from
+[twemoji](https://github.com/twitter/twemoji) at the time of incorporating this proposal
+into the spec, and freezing the set of images at that time. (Until/unless some
+other MSC requires them to be changed.)
+
+These images are attractive and clear.
+
+These images are provided under the CC BY 4.0 license so may be used with
+proper attribution, which should be added to the spec text and client
+applications.
+
+## Potential issues
+
+* If existing clients use Unicode characters to aid accessibility (e.g. for
+  blind users), the use of an image might reduce accessibility. However, the
+  already-provided word forms of the emoji are intended to give clients an easy
+  way of exposing an accessible interface for the verification process, and
+  nothing about this proposal changes that. Clients may also use the standard
+  accessibility mechanisms for their platform (e.g. the `alt` or `aria-label`
+  properties in HTML) to supply the Unicode characters.
+
+* The visual style of the twemoji emojis may not fit well with some client
+  applications. I consider this aesthetic disruption worth it if it makes the
+  verification process easier to use.
+
+* Some client developers may be concerned at the legal ramifications of
+  incorporating CC-licensed artwork into their applications, but my
+  understanding of twemoji's license (CC BY 4.0) is that this is allowed for
+  applications distributed under any license, so long as they comply with the
+  attribution requirement. The
+  [README](https://github.com/twitter/twemoji#attribution-requirements) file for
+  twemoji lists multiple very easy ways of giving attribution that should be
+  possible for any client application. Of course, I am not a lawyer so the
+  foundation would need to satisfy itself as to the situation. Client developers
+  who really felt unable to adopt the images could continue to display emoji
+  using Unicode code points.
+
+## Alternatives
+
+* We could miss out the image URLs in `sas-emoji.json` and expect client
+  developers to figure out the correct URLs based on the pattern, but providing
+  explicit URLs avoids potential problems with misinterpretations, and provides
+  some future-proofing against URL changes in the future.
+
+* We could choose either SVG or PNG images and not supply both. This would
+  further improve consistency, but might make life difficult for client
+  developers who are not able to render certain image types.
+
+* We could use a different emoji set for the images, for example:
+
+    * [Emojitwo](https://emojitwo.github.io)
+    * [noto-emoji](https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji)
+
+    but twemoji is already in widespread use in Matrix clients, so seems the
+    least disruptive alternative.
+
+## Security considerations
+
+This proposal is intended to improve security by making it easier for users to
+perform verification.
+
+If implemented correctly within clients, I can't see any security risks.
