FAQ
Does adding an emoji reaction notify others?
No. Adding an emoji will not send a notification or bump the conversation in your teammates' inboxes.
Can you use emoji reactions without comment permissions?
No. Since adding an emoji reaction is a comment action, any teammate who does not have permission to add a comment also cannot add an emoji reaction.
Do custom emojis work on Front's mobile app?
No. Custom emojis do not work on our mobile app. You will see a placeholder :emoji-name: instead.
Do custom emojis work with tags?
No. Tags do not support custom emojis.
Can I delete custom emojis?
Yes. In the Add Emoji menu, select Edit Emojis in the pop-up, hover over the custom emoji you'd like to delete, then click the trashcan icon.
