You may have had success with a couple emojis that happened to be included in the unicode font you were using...or had already installed on your computer...or on your macOS/iOS device. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the kindle app have access to all fonts installed on the host system??

Do you happen to have a test epub which uses the emojis you are interested in?? It might be easier for us to test on some of the devices we have instead of just randomly trying to guess.
