Facebook is bringing sound emojis, or Soundmojis, to its Messenger platform. The new feature will allow you to express yourself more with sound effects.
According to Facebook, Soundmoji is the next-level emoji that lets you send short sound clips in a Messenger chat, ranging from clapping, crickets, drumroll, and evil laughter, to audio clips from your favorite artists or TV shows. Each sound is represented by an emoji. The social network says it will also update the Soundmoji library regularly.
Facebook Messenger’s Soundmoji feature is already available in select regions. At the time of this article, it is not yet open to users in the Philippines.
How to use Facebook Messenger’s Soundmoji
Using Facebook Messenger’s new Soundmoji feature is pretty straightforward, assuming it is available in your region.
- Open the Messenger app.
- Start a chat or open an existing one and tap the Smiley icon.
- If Soundmoji is available, you will see a loudspeaker icon.
- From there, you can preview a list of available Soundmoji and send it to.
That’s it. You have just sent your Soundmoji.
Keep on the look out on Facebook Messenger if it is available for you. If not, you can try out other features effects like the fire and confetti effects, heart effects, and gift effects.
