And also like said above. Reactions are dumb. This is a good article on it.

The iPhone’s Cutesy “Reactions” Are Ruining Group Texts. HA HA!

Reactions like !! or ? are small, blunt tools of confusion.

Huh, I use emojis all the time

That's why I'm confused. I was pretty sure I could do that when I had my Key2LE

They're talking about "liking" an apple users text and such.

Liking and emphasizing messages is the dumbest thing around.

Well it's important for teenage girls and a segment of grown men on CB.

That is true...and when an iphone user "likes" a text it comes back as DJ

That’s not how it works. Has nothing to do with the model of the iPhone

That's how I see it and others with a lower iphone...please explain

I just did.

Or add an iphone user where it doesn't work and you have the same outcome

Like I said.

So both Android and iphone users suck....gotcha 🙂

It's not ruined for everybody though. The Android user's experience is no different.

Correct. When I said “everybody” it was with the understanding that an Android user is not a real person.

TCuz

That is about as sound a legal argument as one can make.

Google Messages does have an emoji feature. But it is only compatible with others using Google Messages.

This is the answer for anyone really wondering.

Isn't google messages available on ios though? Most every other google app is.

Thats the difference between Google and Apple. If you want in with Google,

Okay, I would never call that an emoji. That's the "tapback" feature.

Like others said above, I was speaking to the ability for iMessage to have text reactions.
