Meta (first FB) CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared information about this feature rollout on Facebook. He said that now WhatsApp users will be able to use an emoji reaction on the message received. Initially 6 emojis have been included. In this, thumsup, heart, lotter, surprise, sad and thanks emoji are provided. This new emoji reaction feature is available for all users.
The company says that more emoji will be added to it in the coming time. We are telling you step by step how you can use the new reaction feature of WhatsApp-
First open any chat in your WhatsApp.
Whatever message you want to give a reaction, tap on it and hold the hold.
As soon as you hold the hold, you will see a pop-up for the same message. In this, you will see the emoji mentioned above, out of which you can select any one emoji and give a reaction to that message.
The selected emoji will start appearing as a reaction under that message.
Also know the benefit of this. Earlier, to give reaction of a message, the user had to go to the chat box and select emojis. It used to take longer because there was a selection of any emoji in a lot of emojis. Now the common reaction emoji is available in popup only which can be instantly put on a message as a reaction. With this, you do not need to go inside the chatbox and select emojis and can be reacted immediately on any message.
