Facebook Launches Soundmojis for Messenger

Facebook has announced the launch of Soundmojis for Messenger ahead of World Emoji Day on July 17.

So, what is a Soundmoji? It’s a next-level emoji that lets you send short sound clips in a Messenger chat, ranging from clapping, crickets,drumroll, and evil laughter, to audio clips from your favorite artists like Rebecca Black and your favorite TV shows and movies like Universal Pictures’ F9, NBC and Universal Television’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and Netflix and Shondaland’s Bridgerton. “Ah, the drama of it all.”




To check out Soundmojis, head to your Messenger app, start a chat, tap the smiley face to open the expressions menu and select the loudspeaker icon. From there, you can preview and send your favorite Soundmojis.

Facebook says its launching an entire Soundmoji library for users to choose from that will be updated regularly with new sound effects and famous sound bites. Each sound will still be represented by a visual emoji.

You can download Messenger from the App Store for free.
