Send them any message and wait for their response. Once they send another message, hold the texts you received from them. You'll see a series of reactions.
At the end of the emoji series, just click the plus symbol and browse for the emoji you want to use. If you want to find it faster, just search for it by typing its name.
Would Instagram be also a shopping site?
According to The Verge's previous report, shopping content could soon arrive in Instagram Reels. IG confirmed that it previously tested a new feature that would allow creators and businesses to tag products when they create Reels. Users can also tap through the tags to buy or save them. This would be a good update since Instagram is well known for its great filters that would really make the products look more interesting. Besides, IG is mainly focused on photos, unlike Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms.
