<p>Telegram's <ahref="https://telegram.org/blog/custom-emoji">previous update</a> revolutionized emoji, adding an open platform for creating <strong>custom animated emoji</strong>. This update gives you even more ways to use these new emoji to express how you're feeling – with <strong>infinite reactions</strong> and <strong>emoji statuses</strong>.</p>
<p>All users now have access to dozens of reactions – including those that were previously only available with Telegram Premium, like <imgclass="emoji"src="//telegram.org/img/emoji/40/F09FA4A3.png"width="20"height="20"alt="🤣"/><imgclass="emoji"src="//telegram.org/img/emoji/40/F09F9890.png"width="20"height="20"alt="😐"/><imgclass="emoji"src="//telegram.org/img/emoji/40/F09F90B3.png"width="20"height="20"alt="🐳"/>. To accommodate all the new emoji, we've redesigned the <strong>reaction panel</strong>, making it <strong>expandable</strong>. The reactions you use frequently will show up at the top.</p>
