New Delhi: WhatsApp, the instant messaging platform, will roll out the quick responses feature moment. The point will allow druggies to respond to dispatches with six emojis-suchlike, love, laugh, sad, surprise, and thanks. In the future, the platform may add further emoticons and skin tones.
The point, called WhatsApp Responses, is analogous to the reply option on Facebook and Instagram.
The Meta- possessed company has been testing the point for over three times. Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg made the advertisement on Facebook. Mr Zuckerberg also listed the six emojis that would be part of WhatsApp responses.
" Responses on WhatsApp start rolling out moment,"Mark Zuckerberg said in a post.
“ We are including ( hands joined emoji) to help spread thanks and appreciation. Further expressions coming soon,"he added.
An user can use the WhatsApp reactions feature by long-pressing on any chat. The user can then select their desired emoji and react instantly to a chat.WhatsApp had blazoned the quick responses feature in April during a Communities event. During the event, the messaging app had also blazoned several other features, including the capability to add 32 people to a group audio call. WhatsApp has also said that the train participating limit will be increased to 2 GB.
The quick responses feature also takes WhatsApp a step closer to integrating with Instagram and Messenger. Druggies of Facebook Messenger and Instagram can formerly communicate with one another. Still, before WhatsApp can be added to the blend, both platforms must first apply end-to- end encryption.
