Replying to a group message with Bitmoji

[AC Question]

Hello all, I have a Galaxy S7 and I use Messages as my default text app. I am trying to reply to a group conversation with a bitmoji (finally learned how to use the bitmoji keyboard), but everytime I select the bitmoji I want to attach, it opens a new message and attaches it there. How do I just have it attach to the existing group message I am intending to reply to?

Thanks in advance!

It's a bad idea completely. If the recipient of the message doesn't have Bitmoji, all s/he sees is characters (like : ) is a smile). With texts and emails (which also doesn't specify anything but text), unless you're attaching a file, stick to straight text to make sure that the recipient sees what you see.

Yes, the day will come when all emoji will be recognised by all devices, but that day is not here yet...

Hi. I have an S7 edge and if you're in a text, click on attachments (paper clip) and go to Other and click on Image....Bitmoji should open.

I figured it out:
1. click to the attachment (paper clip icon) next to the text dialog box
2. click on image icon
3. click on other tab
4. complete action using - select bitmoji icon

One annoying thing is this action sets bitmoji as a default for the other attachments. The way to clear it is to Settings - Apps - Bitmoji app - set as default - clear defaults button

What Keyboard are you using that you get a paper clip. I am on the samsung keyboard and the attachment link is a + when I click that I do not get an image icon. I get Gallery, Places, Yahoo Search, Glympse, Collage, Postcards and then More and under more I get contacts, flipbook and audio..

Where you able to send a Bitmoji to a group? I installed the Google Keyboard, inserted a Bitmoji and get an error meessage “Sorry you can’t add this message”. I’m using Message Plus for texts...what are you using...that may be where I need to adjust. Thanks!

OK, I figured it out...switched Texts to Messenger...that works perfectly!

I use the Verizon message app. I use Gboard and I have the bitmoji app on the keyboard, but every time I try to add a bitmoji to the group text message, it creates a new message and asks me to add the recipients. This happens even when I switch to the Bitmoji keyboard. Help please

I have this same issue. Has anyone come up with a fix. Even when I don't use the bitmoji, I'll use as gif from google and it will always put me in as new text.
