How to Get Balloon Reactions on Zoom

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to send balloon reactions in a Zoom meeting.

Quick summary

You can add a balloon reaction in Zoom by accessing the Reactions menu during a live meeting and selecting the balloon emoji from the extended options. This feature lets participants express celebration or excitement visually without interrupting the conversation.


Steps

  1. On Zoom's main dashboard, create or join a new meeting.
  2. Go to the menu bar and click 'Reactions'.
  3. Tap the 'More' icon to expand additional reaction options.
  4. Search for 'Balloon' and select it from the provided results.
  5. The balloon icon will now appear as your reaction during the meeting.

📌 Why this matters

Zoom's balloon reaction feature makes virtual meetings more engaging by letting participants send expressive, animated emoji responses without unmuting or interrupting the flow of a call. For remote teams, educators, and event hosts, the ability to trigger a balloon animation in Zoom adds a celebratory, human touch to otherwise text-heavy or audio-only interactions. Knowing how to access and use Zoom emoji reactions — including lesser-known options like the balloon — helps users get more value from Zoom's built-in engagement tools. This demo walks through the exact steps to find and activate the balloon reaction, making it easy for any Zoom user to replicate in seconds.
