This TikTok Hack For Sending Emoji With the iPhone Echo Effect Makes Texting More Fun

My texting philosophy when it comes to communicating with my BFFs? If I’m not being as extra as possible, then what’s the point? Thanks to TikTok user Imani Futrell, aka @futrelli, I now have one more iPhone hack to add to my texting arsenal. Back in 2020, Imani shared a hack for sending multiple emoji using the Echo Effect on iPhones, and it’s a game changer when it comes to expressing exactly how I feel.

To fill your text recipient’s screen with the emoji of your choice, start by selecting the three emoji you want to send, space them out accordingly, and hold down the send button. When the Bubble option pops up, toggle over to the Screen section and hit send. Then, all you have to do is await the impassioned replies from your friends and family demanding that you show them how to do the trick, too.

Now, instead of sending three giant emoji in a row or sending them with the Echo Effect one at a time, I can send ? + ? + ? for a pizza party, fill the screen with multi-colored hearts, or force the unknowing recipient of my text to piece together exactly what I mean when I send ? + ? + ? (horror movie night). The emoji combo possibilities are endless, but rest assured that I will be trying them all out ASAP and my contacts had better watch out.
