Google Messages New Features

The default messaging app on the majority of Android phones, Google Messages, has undergone a significant update today, introducing a variety of new features that promise to enhance your conversations. The revamped user interface maintains a familiar appearance, resembling the widely popular messaging app on iPhones, iMessage. One notable addition is the Photomoji feature, allowing users to extract objects from their photos, turning them into personalized photomojis that can be sent as reactions in Google Messages. Shared in group chats, these photomojis can be utilized by other users, akin to Apple's live stickers feature.

Another addition is the Voice Moods feature, enabling users to send voice notes with enhanced emphasis. Following the recording of the message, users can choose from nine different emotions, such as laughter or party fever. Upon sending the voice note, the recipient hears the message accompanied by a visual effect, highlighting the selected voice's mood. Borrowed from iMessage, Google Messages now incorporates Screen Effects, offering fully immersive, vibrant effects that take over the entire screen when sending specific messages. For instance, typing 'I love you' triggers a screen effect where the heart emoji explodes on the screen. Google mentions the presence of over 15 screen effect prompt words.
