Alternatively, you can start a new chat by tapping the New Message button. It looks like a white speech balloon inside a blue circle in the lower-right corner of your Home screen.
Alternatively, you can open up a list of emojis from your device’s keyboard. On a Google keyboard (Gboard), tap and hold the smiley icon to the left of the space bar, then slide your finger to the smiley face icon. On a Samsung keyboard, tap the symbol button in the lower-left corner of your keyboard, then tap the smiley face. On Swiftkey, tap the smiley face icon in the lower-right corner of your screen. Most other keyboards will have the same button configuration as one of these three keyboards above
