I just took a day off yesterday, and came back to work today. I didn’t want to write an article at all. I was bored and checked the App Store. Unexpectedly, I discovered that WeChat has just updated the 8.0.14 version. And different from the usual style in the past, the details of this update did not say “Solve some existing problems”, but said “Can be turned on[Caring Mode]”.
Seeing this caring model, Shi Chao immediately clicked an update without saying a word. Because many apps have recently launched similar aging-friendly versions, the functions have been streamlined a lot. These versions, originally intended for the elderly, were unexpectedly welcomed by the young.
For example, Shichao has been experiencing the large print version of Weibo recently. It only retains the basic functions and removes all kinds of fancy functions. Except that the words are too big and the eyes are swollen after reading for a long time, the comprehensive experience is much more comfortable than the original version of Weibo.
However, after experiencing the care mode of WeChat, Shichao found that apart from the font size becoming super-large, there is no difference in functionality from the original version.
If you really want to say that its caring mode is different from simply enlarging the words, it may be that the color is darkened.
emm, although this care mode is a bit disappointing, Shichao discovered that a group chat setting page has added a folding group function.
The collapsed group chat will disappear from the chat panel and be stuffed into a session called[Collapsed Group Chat].
Good guy, is this a bit like the group assistant function of QQ? Although the function seems familiar, Shichao thinks it is really practical. Because the collapsed group is not only hidden into the[Collapsed Group Window]but this window will not be topped by new messages.
Instead, it is fixed at the 12th position in the chat list (different models may vary).
Shi Chao took the iPhone 11 to test it, and a page can display up to 11 chat windows. So unless you slide down, you won’t see the collapsed group chat. This can be said to be a group chat bottoming function that meets everyone’s strong request. There is another update on WeChat this time, and the optimization is in place.
If you have used the WeChat forwarding function of the first two versions, you must have been pitted by “Recent Forwarding”.
For example, you are chatting with friend A on WeChat. At this time, you see some good pictures in the group of friends and want to share with A. Then you long press the message to forward. The result that appears at the top of the repost list is not the A who chatted with you, but the person you reposted last time: the leader. Then you go up habitually.
This story is not made up by Super World, and if you search it on the Internet, you can see that many netizens are complaining about this feature.
However, after the WeChat update this time, the[Recent Forwarding]has been made into a horizontal list, and the avatar has been enlarged to distinguish[Recent Chat].
I think this update is quite good, because compared to before, we will no longer forward the message to the wrong person so easily, and at the same time retain the function of the recent forwarding. This[Recently Reposted]also appeared when reposting articles, and it should be faster to share articles in the future.
In addition, a new item[Music]has been added to the function menu of the WeChat chat window.
After clicking open, enter the name of the song, and you can directly share it with your friends.
However, Shi Chao feels that this thing is not very useful. After all, we generally only choose to share songs when we are infected by songs while listening to them. Then it was shared directly from the music listening software, instead of searching for the music function in WeChat.
In addition, Shichao found that after updating to 8.0.14, the reminder switch of Moments and Video Numbers could not be found.
The switch here can control whether you will receive a red dot prompt when the Moments of Friends is updated. Afterwards, Shi Chao found out after searching for a long time that they were moved to[Me-Settings-General-Discovery Page Management]and the entire interface was also updated.
Now all the functions with notifications, we can manage[display and notification]in this interface. Anyway, except for the circle of friends, all other functions of the world super are closed. The above are the new features of WeChat 8.0.14. Generally speaking, I think this update is not bad.
If you are still sending the message to the wrong person because of “recent repost”. If you don’t want to see those group chats that upset you. That Shichao kinda recommends that you upgrade to the latest version of WeChat. By the way, the above introductions are all new features of iOS WeChat version 8.0.14. As of press time, Android WeChat version 8.0.14 currently has only one care mode.
