Reactions
When a customer reacts to a message (👍 ❤️ 🙏 …), you see the emoji under that message, just like on the phone. Hover over it to see who reacted. To react yourself, tap 😊 and pick 👍 ❤️ 😂 😮 🙏 or ✅. The customer sees it on their phone straight away. Tap the same emoji again to take it back. Your team sees your name on the reaction. A reaction doesn’t move the chat to the top and doesn’t count as a reply, so a customer who was waiting for an answer is still waiting.Emojis in a reply
Tap 😊 next to 📎 in the reply box to open the emoji panel, then tap the emojis to add. They go where your cursor is, in a reply or an internal note. On a phone, you can also use your keyboard’s emojis as usual.Copy a message
Tap 📋 to copy the message’s words, then paste them anywhere. For a photo or document, this copies its caption. To send the photo itself on, use ↪ instead.Forward a message

To keep your number safe, you can only forward to chats where the customer has written to you before. See Safe use of WhatsApp.
