Ways to Inspire Reaction Effects in FaceTime on Mac

In macOS Sonoma, Apple introduced message-like reactions for FaceTime. However, instead of being triggered by text, they can be triggered by gestures.

When you make a FaceTime video call on a Mac running macOS Sonoma or later, you can trigger screen effects such as hearts, balloons, confetti, fireworks, and more. Will flood the display on the FaceTime window.

You can trigger these layer screen effects via the green FaceTime menu bar item, which includes a mini webcam view and buttons to trigger reactions, or you can go hands-free and trigger the same reactions using just physical gestures.

For example, one thumbs up triggers a like, and two thumbs up are fireworks. Likewise, one thumbs down counts as dislike, and two thumbs down triggers showers.
