REACTION ANIMATION
Last week, we have announced that WhatsApp is finally working on message reactions and on viewing reaction info for a future update of WhatsApp Desktop beta. Today, we have something more to announce about reactions, and we will do it by publishing a video:
As you can see in this video, WhatsApp is working on a new animation: when the user reacts to the message, the animation shows up. Nothing very important, but you can understand that WhatsApp is paying attention to any small detail before releasing message reactions.
