Posted in mysms news by mysms

We’ve got a surprise for our iPhone users. We’ve released a new update that comes with a bunch of new features and a completely fresh design. It’s already available on the Apple App Store.

Shining like a star – our new design

Those of you who are already using our iPad app, might have noticed that we started testing a brand new design a few weeks ago. Thanks to your amazing feedback so far we decided to bring the new style also to our iPhone Messenger. Our lead designer Matthias worked hard to tweak the app to give it a fresh and cool look. The color theme works very well with our web and tablet apps, the icons are clean and simple and the bubbles appear subtle and look good with almost any wallpaper you choose. We hope it is also your taste!

 

Additional options for messages and conversations

It’s now easy to switch between existing conversations when swiping to the left and right in an open conversation. Additionally, you’ve got a wide range of new options when you tap and hold on a conversation or message. For conversations we provide you with the options to call the recipient directly, to send a text via your mobile carrier or to create a contact for unknown numbers. And for messages it’s now possible to copy, delete or lock them. The options “delete” and “lock” are applicable for multiple messages as well.

 

Personalize your mysms app

If you ever wanted to customize the appearance of mysms on your iPhone, you will be very pleased about this new feature: Customize mysms by using individual wallpapers for the conversation background! You’ll find this feature in your mysms settings. There you can choose whether you want to use an existing photo of your camera roll or take a new one.

 

New registration possibility

Until now some of you had to relinquish a mysms account, because we weren’t able to provide you with a PIN. Those days are gone! You can now register via call when not receiving a PIN SMS. Simply follow the registration process and click on “Received no PIN?” to trigger a free call from mysms that announces your PIN.

 

There is much more to discover, we’ve fixed several small bugs, updated the country list and added a series of new features that will make texting with mysms even better.

 

We hope you like the adaptations for the mysms iPhone app as it is time to download the update now 🙂
