Chat Themes, Interactive Emoji, Read Receipts in Groups and Live Stream Recording

+

It became possible to set different themes for individual private chats – for both participants. The release inlcuded 8 new themes, each with their own day and night versions, gradient message bubbles, animated backgrounds, and unique patterns.

+

Nonverbal communication got a boost with interactive emoji: tapping on animated versions of πŸŽ† πŸŽ‰ 🎈 πŸ‘ πŸ’© or ❀️ launches fullscreen effects that appear simultaneously for both chat partners. Vibrations are also synched, so you can almost touch someone's hand – even if you're far apart.

+

A new Seen By field was added to outgoing messages in smaller Group Chats, allowing you to see which members have read it. To protect privacy, these read receipts are stored only for 7 days.

+

The ability to record video came to Live Streams and Video Chats, so communities can save and share anything from online lectures to rock concerts. You can choose to record the video file in portrait or landscape orientation, and the file is instantly uploaded to your Saved Messages once you stop recording.
