What are Soundemojis?
Facebook constantly tries to uplift the chatting experience of its users on different platforms by bringing lots of innovative features for them. Some of the new additions for this cause are FB Messenger-Instagram DM integration, Messenger Rooms, Secret Chats. Soundmojis is the recent one of them all. ‘Soundmojis’ was introduced on Facebook Messenger in July on the occasion of World Emoji Day.
These emojis are a lot different than the regular stickers and emojis as they tend to have relevant sounds attached to them. These sounds are based on the context of the image and range from sound effects to short clips of popular songs. Suppose, you send a ‘drum’ soundmoji to your family chat group, it will also play the corresponding ‘drumroll’ sound in the chat.
These emojis have common sound effects like clapping, laughing, etc. Apart from this, it also includes sound clips of catchy pop songs such as “thank you” sung by Ariana Grande and Cardi B’s “WAP”. Not only this, but they also include short audio from popular TV shows and movies like Fast and Furious and Brooklyn Nine.
For instance, If you send the chicken bowl emoji to someone, it will play “Macaroni in a pot” from Cardi B’s WAP, similarly, the red stop sign will play a part from Billie Eilish’s “Therefore I am” song where it says “Stop, what the hell are you talking about?” Isn’t it exciting?
