    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Google is bringing emoji reactions to its email service, allowing users to add personality to their messages.

    Like emojis on instant messages, the new Gmail reactions are a handy alternative for emails that don’t necessarily need a written reply.

    For instance, the party popper shows digital confetti raining down on your screen.

    For instance, if you have a work or school account, not only are you unable to send emoji reactions, but you’ll also receive each emoji as a separate email, per Google’s dedicated support page.

    Gmail also doesn’t allow you to send reactions if you’re in BCC, the message is encrypted or the sender has a custom reply-to address.

    Rumors about emoji reactions coming to Gmail first appeared on industry insider AssembleDebug’s blog, TheSpAndroid, as well as The Tape Drive with Steve Moser.
