Google is planning to add a new feature to its messaging app, Google Messages. This new feature is the mention option. It will make group chats better.
The company may also change the design of the app. Recently, some information about this was found by analyzing the APK of the Google Messages app. Android Authority reported this news.
According to Android Authority, Google is working on adding the mention feature. Once this feature is available, people in group chats can easily mention or tag a specific person. This is similar to the mention feature in WhatsApp and Telegram.
When you are typing a message in a group chat, you can put the @ symbol before a person’s name. This will send a notification directly to that person. Even if there are many people in the group, the important information will reach the right person quickly.
Besides the mention feature, Google is also redesigning the preference screen of the Google Messages app. This new design will follow the design of Android 16.
However, there is no exact information about when these new features and the design update will be released.
This update will be very useful for people in Bangladesh who use Google Messages for group communication. The mention feature will help them to easily get the attention of specific people in busy group chats. The new design might also make the app easier and more enjoyable to use.
Google is continuously trying to improve its apps. Adding the mention feature and updating the design of Google Messages are steps in this direction. Users in Bangladesh can look forward to these changes that will make their messaging experience better.
