WhatsApp Reactions feature is getting an update two months after it started. Users were initially limited to just 6 reactions, but they will now be able to use any emoji when reacting to a message.
WhatsApp Reactions feature was first launched in early May, after at least 4 years of testing. To use any emoji as a reaction, long press a message, and press the ‘+’ button in the emoji pop-up, the emoji selector will open up.
WhatsApp has been testing several features in the recent past. These include a chat sync feature for Android phones to allow users to log in from another handset, as well as the ability to hide your online status from certain contacts, and more.
In June, WhatsApp began rolling out granular privacy controls for users, allowing them to choose who in their contacts gets to see their About status, their Last Seen, and their Profile Photo. It also announced that the ability to easily transfer WhatsApp data from an Android smartphone to an iPhone would soon roll out. It is still in testing, as per the latest reports.
