What are Super Reactions?
Want to take your reactions to the next level? Would you like to react to a message with an emoji and apply it with emphasis? You can with Super Reactions!
A Super Reaction adds a random animation when you react to a message with your chosen emoji. Super Reactions are great for when you want to add a little more hype, emotion, and intensity to your reaction!
To use a Super Reaction, you can right-click on the message you want to super react to and choose Add Super Reaction or hover over the message and select the Super Reaction dashing smiley face icon or the ellipses icon next to the Edit Message pencil icon to utilize a Super Reaction.
If there are reactions to a message already or if you want to add a different Super Reaction to a message, you can press the Super Reaction dashing smiley face icon that appears next to the existing reactions when you hover over the reactions.
When selecting an emoji from your Emoji Picker for a Super Reaction, the edges of your Emoji Picker window will be glowing and there will be a counter at the top of the Emoji Picker window with the number of Super Reactions you have left available to you. This all indicates that you are choosing a Super Reaction for a message instead of a Reaction.
Super Reactions is available to some Nitro and Nitro Basic subscribers! Learn more in the section below.
