JAKARTA Since the end of last year, Google has launched an emoji reaction feature in Gmail. This feature can be used to provide responses to incoming messages without having to reply.

This feature is next to the Reply feature so the icon tapping error is very likely. When the emoji is sent, the user cannot cancel the emoji. The only way to stop sending is to press the Cancel button before the Message Sends.

For Gmail users for professional purposes, giving replies only with emojis is an unethical act. Therefore, some users may not like the presence of this feature.

Although this emoji reaction can be annoying for some users, there is no way to disable the feature. However, users can still hide the feature with the help of an extension.

Reporting from 9to5google, the first way you can do is to open Google Chrome, then open the Chrome Web Store. After that, look for De-Gmojify's essence and tap the Add option to Chrome.

If the extension is added successfully, the emoji reaction icon will disappear when you open Google Chrome. To restore the icon, you only need to delete the extension from your software.

Unfortunately, this only applies to Google Chrome which is opened via computer. Although the emoji reaction disappears from the Chrome website on the computer, you will still find the icon on the Android device.
