To use any emoji reaction, you should long-press on a message you want to react to, tap on the plus button, and pick an emoji you like from the full list. The emoji you picked will be displayed under the message.
Telegram has also recently unveiled its Premium subscription, which allows users to use new exclusive emoji, such as 👌😍❤️🔥💯🤡🌭🐳, to react to messages.
