Rolling out Reactions in Microsoft Teams Meetings
Microsoft is currently rolling out the Live Reactions feature in Microsoft Teams Meetings. This feature allows users to react to participants during a meeting.
Currently Reactions are available only on Teams Desktop and Teams Mobile apps. Support for meetings on web, breakout room systems, or surface hub will be available later in the year.

sandaleen No news on adding shortcuts to individual reactions.
Kethari Currently there is no way to customize the reactions so you cannot add your own reactions.
Also, there are few related ideas on Microsoft Teams UserVoice site. Consider voting on these ideas so that Microsoft will notice & implement these as early as possible:
- Add Live Reaction Option in meetings
- Add more/custom emoji/memes/gifs/reactions
- allow any emoji as a reaction, not just thumbs up
Please click Like if my post was useful to you in any way.

Hi - Need to bring reaction options more in line with Zoom. Love if you could add the "I'm Away/I'm Back " coffee cup option which stays up until you change it. Helps to monitor which students/attendees have left for/come back from the break time. ganeshsanap

ganeshsanap is there any way we can customise the reactions - meaning, can we add our own reaction icons?
