It’s finally here — the tool that could turn your email inbox into a nightmare or a pure delight, depending on your POV.
Google is adding the ability to react to an email with an emoji.
First rumored last month, Google has now confirmed it is bringing emoji reactions to its Gmail service.
It sounds like the feature will be similar to how most of us use emoji to react to social media posts; you can touch and hold an existing reaction to see who added it as well as tap to reuse a reaction someone else added.
But in a similar way to how Apple’s iMessage Tapbacks are most useful on iOS, emoji reactions will work best on Gmail.
They also won’t be available if the message is sent to more than 20 people, to a group email list, if you’ve been bcc’d, and in a few other instances.
