Microsoft Teams will allow users to choose from over 800 Teams emojis to apply to chat or channels messages. Browse all the reaction options or use the search bar to the find the reaction you want. The feature will be automatically enabled for desktop (Windows and Mac), web, and Teams mobile (iOS and Android).
Reaction Menu: Hover over a message to show the reaction menu.
Open picker: Click on the expanded reactions button to open the full menu and browse all the emojis and reactions available.
This feature update will also be delivered with a new reactions user experience to support the expanded reactions options. The reaction hover bar will now feature a reduced number of quick hover options to make space for an expanded reaction button. The reaction summary will also be moved from the top right of the message to the bottom of the message bubble to make space for the wide range of options that can now be added.
Reaction summary: Once you select a reaction, it will be shown in the reaction summary starting from the bottom left of the message.
Reaction list: Hover over a reaction bubble to see who added this reaction. You can also click on reaction bubbles to add (or remove) this same reaction with a single click.
Channels: This feature will be available on both chat and channels.
The feature does not have any associated settings or ability to enable/disable the feature. Users will also experience a new reactions UX to support the expanded experience.
