Users can find all the emoji with which they can react to a message by simply long-pressing it. This opens a menu containing the last six emoji with a “+” sign. Clicking on the plus icon will open a menu showing every emoji available, from smiley faces to new emoji like the saluting emoji and melting face.
This isn’t the first time we’re hearing about more emoji appearing in WhatsApp message responses. The feature has been in beta on both Android and iOS for the past few versions, and brings WhatsApp’s feature on par with other meta-owned messaging services that allow users to react to messages with emoji.
