Mark Zuckerberg gave one more reason to stick to WhatsApp. He has announced a new reaction feature on WhatsApp to make your chat experience interesting. He has the info on Facebook with a hint of what this feature would do.
“Reactions on WhatsApp start rolling out today” posted Mark with thumps up, heart, cry out louder, hands, and shocking emojis. He also informed me that more expressions would be added to the app soon.

The reaction feature is a new way to express your reaction to a particular message. It is not unique but WhatsApp was lacking this feature. Skype, Facebook, and Instagram already have this where users can react to a message using emojis.
The concept is similar for WhatsApp as well however users cannot use it for now. Here’s what you have to do for using this new feature of WhatsApp.

- First of all, update the application on your device, or else you won’t be able to use it. Go to the play store if you are using an Android phone or update from the Apple store if you have iOS.
- Once the application is updated you will see the option of using this feature
- Go to any chat from the dashboard and select the message you want to react on
- Tap the message and hold for a second to see the option
- Select the emoji you want to use and send
As of now, only 6 emojis that Mark used on his post are available for use. The new feature is just a way to save your time on replies and also make the conversations funny.
Other than this, more new features on WhatsApp are going to be released soon. One of them is a new voice calling feature that allows 32 participants to join on a single call.
