Each icon fades in and out whilst slightly shrinking and enlarging, and each letter appears after another in order.

### 4/5 — Nice, but…

*2023-05-01, version 1.2*

This is nice! But can we have all the reactions that come native in iMSG? For example, can we have the heart emoji? I thought that I’d at least get the reactions that are already in iMSG.

### 4/5 — Needs non blinking and animated ones

*2022-02-16, version 1.2*

It’s good but it need still ones as well

### 4/5 — Great app but needs work

*2021-12-05*

Love the stickers however 2 things I would like to see: reactions that don’t blink or flash or have an effect & reactions flipped so they mirror the same direction as the system Tapbacks.

**Developer response:** Hey there, glad you like it! I've added blue flipped stickers in the latest update (1.2)
