In the most recent update of the Android Discord app, the options are a little different. Now you'll just long-tap the message, tap the gray smiley face icon, and then select an emoji.

You can do this the same way you would a message--just hold your finger down on the image or file in a channel, tap the gray emoji symbol, and then choose an emoji to react with.

An easy way to do this is to tap the gray emoji symbol with a plus sign below the message--this will bring up the emoji picker. Tap any emoji to react.
