I couldn't find another issue for this, so filing it here as a way to keep track.
It would be good if the Android app supported reactions in the same way the iOS app does them. In that app they're called tapbacks, also seen them called reactions, etc.
How iOS is doing them: a reaction emoji is sent as a text message with the emoji as the text, but additionally setting the emoji field on Data set to 1 (it's a fixed32 but being used as a boolean) and the reply_id on Data set to the message ID of the message being reacted to. (not to be confused with request_id)
In principle I don't see any reason this couldn't work with any random emoji, though copying the iOS list of options might be reasonable as well.
