Emoji reactions and custom emojis
Edited

Overview

Emoji reactions allow you to quickly indicate your response to a comment, without the added noise and clutter of additional comments. They're a fun way for your team to express themselves and communicate with each other!

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.
