Howsoever simple it is to use an app and get work done with it, our attention will always be on shortcuts! Talk 9.0.0 brings easier access to the recent conversations by just long-pressing on the app launcher.
And since we’re talking about shortcuts, swiping to do something when using a mobile phone or tablet is always more practical and fun! If you want to reply to a message on a topic that needs your input, just open the conversation and SWIPE to reply to that message. Simple 🙂
Now you will be able to invite people to a conversation even when you’re attending a call or chatting on your mobile! Just choose the way you want to share that conversation, via email to one of your contacts or to a circle!
A software that is friendly to the user and intuitive/ easy to use or understand is always one of our focuses! That’s why we have been making significant improvements to the Talk for Android app! Don’t forget to get the latest and greatest on your device to experience the importance of all the changes!
This feature allows a moderator to force-mute other participants. If a moderator chooses to mute a participant in a conversation, the app mutes that participant for all the users. A muted user will receive a “You have been muted by a moderator” warning. If you usually have large community calls, you can use this feature if someone violates the code of conduct or misbehaves for example.
Group calls now show a speaker indicator, so everyone in a call knows who is speaking, who is muted or not. Now, if you hear any keyboard typing as a background noise when someone is speaking, you’ll know where it comes from 😉 Just check which user is unmuted.
This feature, based on admin settings, can be used to limit the users ability of creating new unwanted conversations, depending on the group they belong to.
Tip: Did you know that Talk 8.0 for iOS brought multi-accounts? If you missed the updates, take a look now and connect all your accounts to your mobile app.
