yes the ability to react to something is amazing but tapbacks are max cringe because: a.) they're called tapbacks and not reactions b.) you must choose one from a short list of pre-approved feelings

a.) fair point. i have a feeling tapbacks originated on the watch to make responding to messages more efficient and probably has some haptic association. b.) also fair point, but the emoji search function is an A+ feature and it is healthy to use words when describing more complex feelings :)
