"Reactions" feature may soon be available on twitter

Following the release of numerous new features earlier this year, Twitter is apparently preparing additional features for iOS users, including Reactions, Downvotes, and Sorted Replies.

The Reactions feature, which began testing a few months ago, is slated to arrive soon, according to reverse engineer Nima Owji, according to 9To5Mac.

This feature is aimed to enable users the option to better demonstrate how conversations make them feel and to give users "a better understanding of how their Tweets are received" with four new reactions: "tears of joy," "thinking face," "clapping hands," and "weeping face."

According to the reverse engineer, the microblogging site can already store data about the downvotes feature, which is yet another indication that this feature may be introduced sooner rather than later.

The company also revised their downvote position, according to the report. There's also a new tab that explains how downvotes operate.

Following the iOS launch in September, the company has now rolled out its in-app tipping option to all Android users over the age of 18.

The "Tips" function, according to Twitter, is aimed towards users who want to get a little financial help from their followers via Cash App, PayPal, Venmo, and Patreon directly through the app.
