How do I use an animated emoji in Slack or Discord?

Download the GIF version and upload it as a custom emoji in your workspace or server settings. Both apps play GIF emoji natively. If the upload is rejected for file size, export at a smaller dimension and try again.

Can I use animated emoji inside my own app?

Yes, that's what the Lottie JSON version is for. Render it with a Lottie player and a reaction weighs a few kilobytes, recolors to your theme, and stays sharp at any size. Cheaper than shipping a GIF per emoji per resolution.
