Now in the popular messenger you can respond to messages in chats with emoticons, which will show your attitude to these messages. The launch of the new Reactions feature was announced on Twitter by WhatsApp CEO Will Cathcart.

New feature is now available for everyone, just update your app to the latest version.

You can choose between:

  • Thumbs-up
  • Heart
  • Crying with laughter
  • Surprised face
  • Sad, crying face
  • Thanks

For the first time, new feature was announced in mid-April.

At the same time, WhatsApp announced the ability to send files up to 2 GB in size and an increase in the number of participants in audio calls up to 32 people, and also revealed communities designed to unite chat groups around a single topic.

While it’s getting easier to connect with your existing contacts through these larger groups and communities, if you need to quickly find social accounts or profiles outside of your private contacts list for research or business purposes, external search tools are often necessary.
