Facebook adds animated reactions and filters to Messenger video chats
The Verge ------ Facebook is updating video chat in Messenger today with some new features, including live filters, animated reactions, and the ability to directly save screenshots. The reactions take the five reaction emoji from Messenger — a heart, a smiling face, a surprised face, a crying face, and an angry face — and animate them as an overlay on your face. For example, the crying emoji will cause animated tears to fall from your eyes, while the heart creates a halo of exploding hearts around your head.
