Emoji written out in words

When someone reacts to my text it’s written out with words rather than me just seeing an emoji icon. How can I fix this?

iPhone 7, iOS 13

Hello Tamayo123,


It sounds like your iMessage responses are appearing as text. We understand how important this is to you and we are here to help.


Can you clarify which type of response you are referring to using this article: Use message effects with iMessage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


Also, can you provide a few more details about what you are experiencing? Have they ever appeared as expected previously? Which device and iOS version are you currently using? Also, are you currently using iMessage(Blue bubble) or SMS( Green bubble)?


Cheers!
