An image published on Twitter by WaBetaInfo was enough to unleash the imagination of users: up Telegram le are coming Reaction to messages. For the uninitiated, the Reactions are emoticons to be used to show appreciation or indignation on a specific message we have received. To understand a what they serve just think of the Reactions present on Facebook or Skype, with which a user, without replying directly to the message, shows his reaction.
For a long time users of Telegram and WhatsApp require the two messaging apps to implement this functionality and from the latest rumors it seems that the Russian messaging app is further along in development. In fact, so far there hasn't been any rumor that WhatsApp is working on a similar tool. The Telegram developers in recent years they have proved to be always a little more pro-active, first implementing functions that then also arrived on WhatsApp.
What are the Reactions on Telegram
The guys of WaBetaInfo, usually always very informed about the new functions of WhatsApp, this time announce a news for Telegram: the Reactions arrive to the messages. These are emoticons that show our mood with respect to a single message. From the image published by WaBetaInfo, initially the Available reactions will all be centered on the heart. There will be the "beating heart" to show affection, the "broken heart" when we don't like the message and so on.
How Reactions on Telegram work
It is not yet very clear the operation of the Reactions on Telegram, but we can imagine that the use is very simple: just select the message and the emoticons will appear on the screen. By selecting one of the emoticons, the emoticon with the reaction will appear next to the messages.
The user who wrote the message, on the other hand, will receive a notification that warns him of the presence of a Reaction and will be able to check who entered it.
When the Reactions arrive on Telegram
Difficult to make predictions: the function is still in the development phase and we will have to wait a little longer before seeing it in the stable version of the app. WaBetaInfo assures it will come released a server-side update in the coming months.
