How to Change Colors and Emojis on Facebook Messenger

You can customize your Facebook Messenger conversation by giving it your own color and replacing the Like button with a different emoji. These changes will take effect immediately and apply to everyone in the chat. The color change won’t show up on the Facebook page, but the emoji will.

Open the Messenger chat for which you want to change the color. You can change the color of every conversation in Messenger. New color is applied to chat title and message frame. Everyone who joins the conversation sees these changes.

The color change is only visible on Messenger; you won’t see the color change when viewing messages on the Facebook website.

Open the conversation details. The operation in this step is a little different between iOS and Android:

iOS – Tap the chat participant name or list at the top of the screen.
Android – Tap the ⓘ button in the upper right corner.

Select the color you want to change. The change took effect immediately, and the chat title and message pane instantly changed to a new color.

Participants in the chat are notified that you have changed the color of the chat, and see a “Change” link that allows them to quickly choose a different color.

Tap “Emoji” in the chat settings to change the emoji. The default emoji is the Like button displayed next to the message input field. You can replace the Like button in the chat with a new icon. The emoji change will apply to everyone in the chat. ^{[1] X Research Source}

Drag left and right to view and select available icons. When you select a new icon, a message will appear in the chat for everyone to see, alongside a path for them to tap and change to another icon.
Unlike the color change, the new chat emoji remains visible when you’re on the Facebook page.
