WeChat's new gameplay is so magical! Be the first to experience WeChat Android beta version

[[401766]]

Recently, the new versions of WeChat are almost always released first on the Apple system, and sometimes even three consecutive updates. In contrast, the Android side seems to be very quiet, and even the version number is far behind. Recently, WeChat for iOS 8.0.6 was officially released, and the Android side was also directly upgraded from the previous 8.0.3 to 8.0.6 (beta version). Although it is still a beta version, the basic functions are almost the same as the iOS version. Next, let's take a look at what new changes have been added to the new version.


The eternal "solved some known issues"

1. Just tap and it will explode

At the beginning of the year, in the WeChat 8.0 version update, the official added a set of full-screen animation effects (see the picture below if you don’t know). Some friends said that they were tired of playing with them! So in version 8.0.6, the engineers moved it to “Tap”.

The new version of "Tap" adds an emoticon icon in the lower left corner, so we can add emoticons directly on the original text. The editor found that in addition to some ordinary icons, dynamic emoticons such as "bomb", "firecracker" and "fireworks" are also included. The result is of course obvious. If someone takes a photo of you without knowing the situation, you will be blown up immediately! However, this change requires both phones to be upgraded to the new version at the same time to see it. If either party is using the old version, you still cannot see the effect shown in the figure below.

“Tap Tap” also supports bombs!

2. Can transfer 1GB large files

If you often transfer files between your phone and computer, then this next change will definitely make you happy. WeChat version 8.0.6 has greatly relaxed the size limit for file transfers, allowing you to directly send single files under 1GB. This relaxation is not only reflected in the "File Transfer Assistant", but can also be used for file transfers between friends. In the context of WeChat becoming more and more office-oriented, this change is still quite popular.

File transfer supports files as large as 1GB

PS: Currently, this new change is only limited to transfers initiated from mobile phones. The PC side is still blocked by the 200MB limit, so... friends who have urgent needs may have to wait for a while.

3. Increase the word count of transfer instructions

In addition to the expansion of file transfer size, there is another small area that has also been expanded, which is the "description text" when transferring money on WeChat. In WeChat version 8.0.6, the word limit of the description text has been increased from 10 to 60 words, basically you can say whatever you want to say (but how many people will talk about it at length here~!@#%……). And this change is deployed on the server side, which means that users of the old version can now experience it.

4. Status time limit reminder

WeChat status is valid for 24 hours, but many netizens don't know this. The new version adds a line of small text "valid for 24 hours" below the original text prompt, which allows users to understand more clearly how to use WeChat status. In addition, WeChat version 8.0.6 also adds a "limited-time status", similar to QQ's limited-time emoticons. Will WeChat also make it a paid item in the future? It is unknown.

5. Add tags to new friends

WeChat 8.0.6 adds a "label" feature to the friend adding page, which allows us to group friends directly during the adding process. This feature has the same effect as adding friends to the contact label before, but it is obviously more convenient to use.

Final Thoughts

The above are all the features added to the Android version of WeChat 8.0.6, which basically synchronizes all the changes of the iOS version. However, from the trial situation, some new features still have some problems, such as the "Tap" function, some emoticons cannot pop up, so the official release may be delayed a little bit. However, the flaws do not outweigh the merits. Overall, the changes this time are still quite powerful, fun and useful. Interested friends can wait patiently!
