The WeChat iOS version 7.0.9 was launched on December 23, allowing users to post custom emoticons in the comments of WeChat friends circle. But only one day later, on the evening of December 24, the feature has been turned off.
It is suspected that the friend circle emoticon comment function may not be a formal, but an A / B type opening test.
At present, it is no longer possible to publish custom emoticons in the comments of WeChat friends circle. Only the default emoticons of WeChat can be used. In addition, the custom emoticons that users have previously released can still display and browse normally.
According to the Beijing Youth Daily, WeChat confirmed the news. WeChat said โPreviously, we conducted a grayscale test on the function of sending emoticons in the comments of friends circle, and some users can use it after updating the 7.0.9 version. This feature is currently suspended.โ
