Texting has become a very important way of communicating in the 21st century, but sometimes it’s hard to read the context of a text. That is why #Apple has decided to re-invent the way that we send these messages and Apple users will be more than impressed with the new features they’ll be introducing to #iMessage. Get into it below:
1.) BIGGER Emojis!!
Apple says that Emojis will be 3x bigger so that they’re easier to find. Plus, your keyboard will be able to predict an Emoji to replace a word in your message if you want!
2.) Using Special Apps In iMessage
The wait is ovahhh! iPhone users will be able to order food to-go through iMessage and can even collaborate with friends on an order. You will also be able to use videos apps like Jib Jab to make videos for your friends and send them instantly.
3.) Fullscreen Filters
If you’d like to send balloons to a friend for their birthday, there will be a new filter that sends them over your entire phone screen! There will also be flying confetti and flashing lights, pretty neat, huh?
4.) Invisible Ink
The recipient of the message will have to swipe their finger over the message in order for it to be revealed. This makes virtual surprises so much more interactive!
5.) Bubble Effect
This feature allows you to be able to dictate how the message appears to the recipient whether you want it to literally pop up or have a small text.
6.) Handwritten Messages
No chicken scratch, please.
7.) Tapback
If you’d like to send an instant reaction to a message, you have six options which include a heart, a thumbs up and a thumbs down.
8.) Customizable Photos & Videos
Just think all of the customization that Snapchat gives us except in iMessage!
9.) Stickers
Apple will be experimenting with animated stickers just like Facebook. There will be different packages to choose from.
Are y’all here for these updates, Roommates?!
