All Devices Frequently used emoji keyboard

Any way to remove what I think is the Animoji from frequently used on the keyboard since I never use it?

At least you can tap again on the "clock" icon for frequently used to "hide" it, kind of.
I have found no way to disable it completely. That would be great since I don't use them, too....

Would like to know this as well, got no use for Animoji whatsoever.

No way to disable as of yet.

Stupid decision by Apple to put those there in an effort to get you to use Animoji.

Some of us will NEVER use Animoji so why put them under “frequently used”?

Really wish they'd let us disable that crap. One thing I'd also like to know is if there's a way to have the emoji keyboard enabled but not have have the icon in the lower left. In ios 12 the "123" key took up the entire spot, now it shares the space with the emoji key. I've had to remove the emoji keyboard all together to get the larger "123" key back.
