WhatsApp is constantly adding new features to the platform to improve the experience of its users.
The company is now working on a feature called 'Recent Emoji Message Reaction', which will allow iOS users to reply to messages in chat in an easy way.
Currently, the company offers users the facility to respond to messages through 6 emojis.

How does the new feature work?
Following the update, the reaction tray will now be scrollable, allowing users to select more emojis, including recently used ones. This feature removes the limit of 6 emojis and further improves the interaction.
Users will now be able to easily select emojis directly from the tray without opening the entire emoji panel. This feature saves time for those who often use non-default emojis or change emojis in their reactions.
