WhatsApp for iOS working on message reaction feature with new settings

Facebook-owned WhatsApp has been working on new reaction features as the new beta version of the platform brings the ability to manage reaction notifications with new settings to disable them or change their tone for iOS users.

With that users can be alerted (or not) by new reactions the same way they are with messages and groups notifications citing WABetaInfo, 9To5Mac reported on Saturday.

Even though WhatsApp is working on this feature, reactions are still not available for public beta testers to try it out, the report said.

Previously, WABetaInfo said messages can have an infinite amount of reactions but they will stop being counted when reaching 999 of them, after that a “+” sign will appear.
