Sometimes you need more than just words in a conversation. Additionally, you may want to react to a message by liking it (by using hearts, clapping, or even showing joy or sadness). That's where Emoji's role comes in.
Emojis are both fun and helpful for getting work done. You can use them to react to any message, expressing how you feel in a light way.For instance, if you want to show appreciation, you can respond with a clapping emoji. Or for a sad moment, you can give a crying or sad emoji.Emojis can even replace the need for follow-up messages.
Since it's been founded it has been an integral part of popular social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook by META, and IMessage conversations by Apple Corp. allowing you to express your views on the message without putting much effort.
Google has recently announced that it will soon allow its users to leave emoji reactions in documents in its web version of Google Docs.
