Messenger assigns each conversation a “quick reaction” symbol that users can tap to send that symbol in the conversation. By default, a conversation’s quick reaction is the thumbs up emoji, but users can change this icon to suit their tastes. Specifically, users can select a different emoji or a picture of their avatar.

Our guide will show you how to change the quick reaction in a Messenger conversation.
