Hover over a message (on a phone, the buttons are always there) to see these buttons under it:

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

  1. Tap ↪ on the message. For a group of photos sent together, this forwards all of them.
  2. Search for and tick up to 5 chats.
  3. Tap Forward.
Each one arrives as a new message from your number, with photos, videos, voice notes and documents included. The customer doesn’t see where it came from.
To keep your number safe, you can only forward to chats where the customer has written to you before. See Safe use of WhatsApp.

Several messages at once

  1. Tap ☑️ on a message. On a phone you can also press and hold a message, like in WhatsApp, or tap ⋯ at the top of the chat, then ☑️ Select messages.
  2. Tap each other message you want. A tick shows on the ones you picked. Tap one again to untick it.
  3. At the bottom, choose:
    • 📋 Copy copies them all, oldest first, each with its time and who wrote it.
    • ↪ Forward sends them, in order, to up to 5 chats. You can forward up to 20 messages at a time.
  4. Cancel takes you back to the reply box.
Internal notes can be copied but never forwarded, so they always stay inside your team.
