emoji reaction
Pictographic quick reply
An emoji reaction is a response to a message or post using a single emoji rather than words, typically by clicking or tapping a reaction button: She gave my text a thumbs-up reaction.
Platforms like Slack, Facebook, and iMessage offer preset emoji reactions, allowing quick acknowledgment without composing a reply.
The term also describes the practice itself: I prefer an emoji reaction to typing "lol" every time.
