Express yourself in Microsoft Teams meetings with live reactions

During your meeting, select React   in the meeting controls at the top of the meeting view to share your reaction to what's being shared. Choose from a range of live reactions, including:

• Like
• Love
• Applause
• Laugh
• Surprise

Reactions are available in both Teams for web and the Teams desktop app.

Your reaction pops up momentarily at the bottom of your meeting and over your profile picture or video feed.

If you or someone else is sharing content in a meeting, such as a desktop, window, PowerPoint deck, photo, video, or whiteboard, reactions float up from the bottom of the screen for a few seconds. Corresponding reactions also appear on the profile pictures of participants who send reactions.

Using live reactions on an iOS or Android mobile device

To share meeting reactions (or raise your hand) when you're using an iOS or Android mobile device while in a Teams meeting, tap More info  in meeting controls along the bottom of the screen to choose a live reaction. 

The reaction pops up momentarily across your live video feed, or if your camera is turned off, across your profile picture.

Using live reactions on an iPad or Android tablet

To share a meeting reaction (or raise your hand) while using an iPad or Android tablet in a Teams meeting, tap React  in meeting controls along the edge of the screen. 

When live reactions appear, tap the reaction you want to express in your live video feed. If your camera is turned off, the reaction pops up momentarily across your profile picture.

If you or someone else is sharing content in a meeting, such as your screen, PowerPoint deck, photo, or video, live reactions float up from the bottom of the screen for a few seconds.
