All the Keywords That Activate Facebook’s Text Delight Animations

All the Keywords That Activate Facebook’s Text Delight Animations

It was recently a friend?s birthday. Facebook, being the helpful social network it is, prompted me to ?send her good thoughts?.

So I did.

?Hope you had a rad one!? I wrote. I hit Post, and my birthday greeting popped onto her wall. However, this post looked a little different. The word ?rad? was in a bright purple? and when I clicked on it, little thumb-up emojis popped up and flew across the screen, leaving colourful trails in their wake. What was going on?

After couple of failed Google searches and some digging with the Developer Tool, it turned out that I had accidentally triggered one of Facebook?s ?Text Delight? features. I had seen the ?congrats? animation before, but it looks like there are three ?secret? animations in total. Here they are, along with the list of keywords that activate them.

Updated Sept. 16 with new keywords for balloon animationUpdate Sept. 29: Some users are reporting difficulties seeing the text delight animations. There may be differences based on your country or language settings. The animations appear best on desktop/laptop computers. Mobile users may need to update their app.Update Dec 7: A new animation has been spotted! Thanks John for the heads up.Update Dec 22: Another animation has been found! Thanks to Christine and Merri for commenting below.Update Jan 29: Added the BFF animation to the list. Thanks Tam, Dana, and Janelle for taking the time to comment!Update Feb 16: Added yet another new animation ? thanks to Tary for commenting! Luke and Stacey also report that ?good vibes? is activating a new animation as well.Update Jun 14: Tons of updates, thanks to all for sharing your findings. I?ve added the Flower Bouquet animation and added all the keywords for Flying Star. The new World Cup animations merit a new post, which is linked below.
