Emojis and stickers

Emojis and stickers are images you can send to the chat. Use them to express emotions and make communication more fun.

Emoji reactions are only available to users who are logged in to Yandex: one emoji for one message per user. Emojis are visible to everyone. You don't have to be a chat member to add reactions. Adding a reaction to a chat also doesn't make you a member.

Emoji reactions are displayed under the message. The most popular ones are shown on the left.

Press a reaction to see who added it and when, to add your own reaction, or to change it.

When you share or reply to a message, emojis aren't displayed in the quoted original message.
