Facebook Reactions are now expanding to comments. The social network has started rolling out reactions to its main app soon after bringing them to Messenger in March.
Facebook launched Reactions globally in February last year. Just for a quick recap, Reactions includes six emoticons depicting various responses such as love, laughter, happiness, smile, shock, sadness and anger. In order to add a reaction, you will have to hold down the Like button on mobile or hover over the Like button on desktop to see the reaction image options, then tap either Like, Love, Haha, Wow, Sad or Angry. Until now you could add Reactions to status, images and videos shared on Facebook. With the latest addition, you can now use these Reactions for comments as well.
Reactions for comments are available on Facebook’s desktop website as well mobile app. Facebook announced in February that Reactions had been used more than 300 billion times in the first year since their launch.
