<p>Telegram&#39;s <a href="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&#39;re feeling – with <strong>infinite reactions</strong> and <strong>emoji statuses</strong>.</p>
<h4><a class="anchor" name="infinite-reactions" href="#infinite-reactions"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Infinite Reactions</h4>
<p>All users now have access to dozens of reactions – including those that were previously only available with Telegram Premium, like <img class="emoji" src="//telegram.org/img/emoji/40/F09FA4A3.png" width="20" height="20" alt="🤣" /> <img class="emoji" src="//telegram.org/img/emoji/40/F09F9890.png" width="20" height="20" alt="😐" /> <img class="emoji" src="//telegram.org/img/emoji/40/F09F90B3.png" width="20" height="20" alt="🐳" />. To accommodate all the new emoji, we&#39;ve redesigned the <strong>reaction panel</strong>, making it <strong>expandable</strong>. The reactions you use frequently will show up at the top.</p>
