Add Custom Emojis to Statuses

Custom Emojis can already be added and used in Messaging. Why not have them available in the user status as well?

Benefit of such feature It would raise morale, and make it easier for people to know someone's status or mood at a glance. Some people can't read as well or fast as others, or know certain languages, but pictures are universal.

    Reminder: They used to be a feature before RC forced everyone to move to a new, unfinished product.

    Please bring back custom emojis as we have been Ring Central clients for many years and those users who had Ring Central in the early days set their custom emojis and we can still see those emoji's in RC conversations with those users. We have many other users inquiring as to how to add a custom emoji to their status and we have to tell them that Ring Central phased it out in subsequent iterations. I always get that "disappointed face" when I tell them, clearly making a judgement about Ring Central as a company. For morale, please bring it back. Thanks!

    So I've noticed that there also isn't any Pride Flag Emojis. That's rather disappointing, especially during Pride Month. Just another readon custom emojis should be allowed, if RC won't be promoting such things..

    If anyone's paying attention to this idea still, vote for the new one I made to just...put them back, at least.

    Custom Emojis are no longer available in the new RingCentral. This is very sad. :( I had spent a lot of time and work taking little icons I had and turning them into emotes.

    I would post a frustrated emoji face for this feature being removed in the new app, but, as such, I can't. It is a endless loop of sadness.

    Why would you remove a feature that already worked, people used, and is included in competitor's products? (custom emojis in messaging)

    Custom Emoji's "was" a feature... and, it was way more than a morale booster -- we relied on it to convey important things, not covered by the standard emoji's. So, please bring the feature back, Thank You 😬

    Thanks for your feedback, Dan. The more details and use cases the better.

    Joe, Custom Emojis are not a feature at this time. The idea was merged with other ideas requesting Custom Emojis. This is under "Future Consideration" by the product team and we'll update this idea when we have further details.

    My ticket was merged with this one... and this ticket seems to imply that Custom Emojis already work for messaging, and people want to also use them in Statuses. However, I don't see the ability to add or use custom emojis in messaging ..So, what am I missing here?

    We also use custom emoji's for statuses as well. Its not just a morale or fun thing, its also utility.

Custom Emotes

They were available in RingCentral Classic, but are not in the new RingCentral. I liked being able to take my own icons and make emotes out of them.
