If you have an Android mobile, it is very likely that you have the Google messaging app installed. It is the one that is established by default in many devices. This application is updated from the application store, and not when there is a new version of the system. La Android messages app is receiving a new update with cosmetic changes. We show you what's new.
The main change is in the aesthetic section.The new version adapts to the design of Android 9 Pie, which includes clearer elements. For example, the upper area goes from being blue to include a bar completely in white. In addition, some elements are moved, such as the title of the application, which moves to the center. The button to write messages is also updated. Before it just showed a “+” in a circle. Now, we can see a longer icon with the words "Start chat". By the way, the icon of the contacts also changes. They now display a lighter color palette.
Dark mode in the messaging app
Inside the chat we also see some cosmetic changes. Again, a lighter background, message balloons with a pastel color and the new contacts icon. The bar to write messages has not changed.Just a small touch of clarity on the icon to attach files. But without a doubt, the most interesting thing about this update is the dark mode option It can be activated from the menu, in the upper area. The interface will automatically turn dark, with more saturated colors.
The version that comes with the new design is 3.5. It will soon be available on Google Play, but if you want to try it you can download the APK from APK Mirror. Don't have this app, but want to try it? Messages for Android can be installed on any mobile from Google Play. Of course, you must have Android 5.0 Lollipop or a higher version.
