WhatsApp will also allow States to react

Soon, it will also be possible to react to WhatsApp States , a novelty that has not been available until now. It is a functionality in the testing phase, so it should still take several months until it is widely available to all users who use the app.

It seems that the reactions will be an important part of WhatsApp , since not only can you react to the messages of the different chats, but the company’s intention is that the novelty also extends to the 24-hour states that have a tab. own.

Until now, the only thing that can be done with the States that your contacts upload to their profile is to see it and respond to them through a text message accompanied or not by one or more emojis. To those possibilities will soon be added a new button to react to those States.

According to WABetaInfo, you can send 1 of the 8 emojis that will be available, the one with the face is a smile, the one with the eyes of a heart, the one of astonishment, the one that cries, the one with the hands together, the one with the hands giving a applause, party and 100 points.

Actually, the reaction will be sent as a text message with the emoji at least for the images that we know, so it would be the same as clicking on the State chat box to reply to that person and send one of the dozens of emojis that there are available.

WhatsApp is probably working on a specific interface to react to States, at the moment we don’t have much more information about it. It is quite possible that the novelty will first reach the WhatsApp mobile apps and then WhatsApp Web and Desktop.

The option to send reactions to WhatsApp States is in very early stages, the functionality is not even available for beta testers, so it will still take a long time before it is officially announced, probably at the end of 2022 or later.
