Actually, you can search for an emoji by name, you just go about it a little different. Write in the text field what you are looking for, like home for instance. Then when you double tap the emoji keyboard button in the lower left, if you put your focus back on the edit box, VoiceOver will say, "Edit field, is editing, emoji replacements available." Your focus will already be on the emoji rodar item, but if not then turn the rodar till yu get there. Then, just flick up/down until you hear the type of emoji you want. If you wrote something broad like home, you may get a pop up menu with several choices of kinds of homes, like house with yard, or something else. Swipe to the right to see the various choices an then double tap. After you do this a few times, these emojis will appear ont the recent emoji page. This sure beats scrolling through the always expanding emoji pages looking for that one special symbol. I haven't searched for smiley faces, but if you try entering smile or smiley face in text, then switch to emoji, you would likely get the smiley emojis.
