# What is an Emoji Reaction poll and when should I use it?

> Emoji Reaction polls measure emotional sentiment toward a single asset — respondents pick one of five emojis to show how your creative makes them feel.

An Emoji Reaction poll measures emotional sentiment toward a single asset (like a logo, tagline, or ad) by letting respondents choose from 5 emojis (very negative to very positive) and explain their reaction. Use it when you need quick gut-check feedback on how your ideas or creative make people feel, rather than comparing multiple options.

# What is an Emoji Reaction poll?

Emoji Reaction polls help you understand the emotional impact of your creative at a glance. Instead of comparing versions side by side, you share one asset and ask respondents to rate their feelings using emojis.

Respondents select one of 5 emojis to show their sentiment:

|           |               |
| --------- | ------------- |
| **Emoji** | **Sentiment** |
| 😢        | Very negative |
| 🙁        | Negative      |
| 😐        | Neutral       |
| 🙂        | Positive      |
| 😄        | Very positive |

After selecting an emoji, they provide written feedback explaining their choice. This gives you both quantitative data (percentage breakdown) and qualitative insights (detailed comments).

Use Emoji Reaction polls for gut-check feedback on emotional connection, not for comparing multiple versions. For side-by-side comparisons, try a Head-to-Head poll instead.

# When should I use an Emoji Reaction poll?

Emoji Reaction polls work best when you want to gauge overall sentiment toward a single creative concept. They're ideal for testing:

* **Logos and branding** – Does your new logo feel trustworthy and professional?

* **Taglines and messaging** – Does your product description resonate emotionally?

* **Ad creative and campaigns** – How does your ad make viewers feel?

* **Product names or concepts** – What's the emotional first impression?

This poll type captures emotional reactions quickly, helping you understand if your creative connects the way you intended.

Emoji Reaction polls support text/URLs, images, image sets, videos, audio, and product mockups – test whatever format matches your creative.

# How to create an Emoji Reaction poll

Setting up an Emoji Reaction poll takes just a few steps:

1. **Start a new poll** – Click "Create Poll" from your dashboard

2. **Choose Emoji Reaction** – Select it from the poll type menu

3. **Upload your creative** – Add your text, URL, image, video, audio, or product mockup

4. **Write your question** – Ask something like "How does this logo make you feel?" or "What's your reaction to this tagline?"

5. **Target your audience** – Choose demographics that match your target market

6. **Preview and launch** – Review your poll, then launch to start collecting feedback

Emoji Reaction polls evaluate one option at a time. If you want to compare two or more versions, use a different poll type like Head-to-Head, Ranked, or Multi Select.

# How to read your Emoji Reaction poll results

Once your poll completes, you'll see two types of insights:

* **Percentage breakdown** – Visual chart showing how many respondents chose each emoji (e.g., 45% positive, 30% very positive, 15% neutral, 10% negative)

* **Written feedback** – Detailed comments from respondents explaining why they felt that way

This combination of quantitative sentiment and qualitative reasoning helps you understand not just how people feel, but why.

# Frequently asked questions

### **Can I test multiple options in one Emoji Reaction poll?**

No, Emoji Reaction polls only show one option at a time. To compare multiple assets, use a Head-to-Head or Ranked poll.

### **What formats can I test with Emoji Reaction polls?**

You can test text (including URLs), images, image sets, videos, audio files, and product mockups.

### **How is an Emoji Reaction poll different from a Star Rating or Open-Ended poll?**

Emoji Reaction polls capture structured sentiment (5 emojis) plus written feedback. Star Rating polls ask respondents to rate a single asset between 1 and 5 stars, while Open-Ended polls only collect written responses without ratings.
