Reactions and raise hand

Tap the reactions button in the control bar to react, or the hand button to raise your hand.

Reactions:
• Pick one of the flat reaction icons (Thumbs up, Heart, Laugh, Celebrate, Clap, Wow) and it floats up on your tile for everyone to see for a few seconds. Great for reacting without interrupting. Reactions travel over the wire as a stable key and render as the same flat glyph for every participant, regardless of their device's emoji font.

Raise hand:
• Tap Raise to put a hand up — a hand badge shows on your tile and next to your name in the People panel, so the host knows you want to speak. Tap Lower to put it down.

Both are lightweight and live — no need to unmute just to say "yes."
