Like iMessage, Facebook Messenger, Instagram and Telegram: WhatsApp will get reactions to messages

WhatsApp developers are going to add a new feature to the branded application.

What is the function

We are talking about the ability to put a reaction to messages using emoji. This was reported by the WABetainfo portal.. For the reaction, you will need to hold down the message and select one of six emoticons. That is, it will work the same way as in other popular applications, including iMessage, Facebook Messenger, Instagram and Telegram.

When to expect

I am already testing a new function in the application. When it will appear at all - there is no information.
