- Some animated emoji now have extra effects.
- Send 🎆🎉, 🎈, :like:, 💩 or ❤️
to any private chat, then click on the animated emoji
to launch the effect.
- If your chat partner also has the chat open,
you will both see the effects.
- See the "Watching" status
when your chat partner is enjoying emoji effects with you.
- More interactive emoji coming soon.
- Right click one of your outgoing messages in small groups
to see who recently viewed it.
- To protect privacy, read receipts are only stored for 7 days
after the message was sent.
- Record video and audio from live broadcasts in your group or channel.
- Admins can start recording from the '...' menu.
- Choose between recording in portrait or landscape orientation.
- Finished recordings are sent to the admin's Saved Messages
and can be easily shared.
- Add emoji to media captions.
- Switch off the 'Count unread messages' option
in Settings > Notifications if you want to see
the unread chats count in the badge instead.
