Reactions are coming to WhatsApp , a new functionality that the platform is preparing so that you can send a reaction, as happens on Facebook, to messages and images and they will also come with end-to-end encryption, like all the content that passes through the conversations that take place through this instant messaging.
The new WhatsApp reactions would include the popular thumbs up, a red heart, a face with tears, a face with an open mouth, a crying face and palm-to-palm hands , at least it is the information that is handled in a preliminary way after the leak released via a WABetainfo tweet, so it’s possible other reactions could be included.
When do they arrive and how to activate WhatsApp reactions
In order to activate WhatsApp reactions, you must be part of the application’s beta program , since this is where the function that has already passed several months of internal testing will be sent at first, after which it could appear shortly for the rest of the users.
There is still no exact date for the announcement , but it is expected that the next update of the WhatsApp beta program will bring the new feature with it and it will be enough to long press on the message or photo you want to react to so you can choose the emoji you want to send in response to that message.
For users of the official version of WhatsApp, it may take at least another two months to arrive after the fun feature is brought in for beta testing, though it will likely be available for iPhone first . and then for Android terminals.
