Hi there!

Today we’re so excited to announce the launch of Appreciations in Asana. Appreciations help your team feel connected and engaged no matter where you are. With Appreciations, you can celebrate a team member’s accomplishments and provide encouragement on anything in Asana—from completed tasks and milestones to [status updates](https://blog.asana.com/2020/05/introducing-status-for-remote-work/). Here’s how it works:

We are so excited for you all to use Appreciations in Asana and look forward to your feedback and questions in the comments below!

Important note: we’re progressively rolling out this update, so if you don’t see it just yet in your account, no worries at all, it will be available to you within the next couple of days!

Cool feature, showing gratitude is important. But I wish there was a visual presentation where they didn’t take up so much vertical space. Like in slack, anytime someone posts a meme or two it wipes out the conversation and makes it hard to scroll through

Is this a premium feature or do free accounts also have access?  
Has this officially rolled out yet? I’m having trouble finding it.
