Pictochat comes to Imessage

at some point the new Imessage application appeared, promising to recreate “sitting on the bus and communicating with friends through your favorite two-screen portable manual. This is exactly what I have to expect when I installed Picochat for Imessage.
Verdict? This returned me right to the days when I was sitting on a crowded food court with my cousin, each of us hunched over our Nintendo ds Lites, a stylus in his hand, pounced with intermedled jokes, moved with the help of seemingly unrelated emoticons.
This works almost as I remember how I saw it when I got my first Nintendo DS Lite. It seems that everything there, from a cramped small keyboard to charming small square emoticons.
there are even some new additions, including new emoticons and the ability to save your favorite messages for sending later.
The Pictochat keyboard leaves much to be desired on the screen. The box in which you write is incredibly small, and the keyboard on the screen cannot be used on the iPhone. This is doubly true if you are still holding the iPhone mini.
The placement of your phone in horizontal mode does not expand and does not increase the keyboard, or & mdash; It just appears in the side menu of your favorite drawings. If the developer continues to work on the application in the future, I would advise increasing the messages in horizontal mode, just like Apple allows manuscript messages when you turn your iPhone on the side.
, but this did not stop me from molesting several of my colleagues-Millennials and Appleinsider with small messages Pictochat this morning. And, since each picochat is loaded as an image, you can bother your friends, even if they do not have an application.
I would like to note that it works quite well on the iPad when you use Apple's pencil. If you have an iPad, and you are eager for Frisson Nostalgia of the 2000s, this will give you this correction.
regardless of which device you use is not the easiest way to send messages, and I, of course, do not recommend using it for something important. Nevertheless, this is a fun, free application that should be loaded if not only for the experience of days.
It is here that I indicate that this is a third-party application that is in no way developed or is not supported by Nintendo. Nintendo, as a rule, is a rather controversial company to speak slightly, so there is a fair probability that it will try to remove the application if it thinks that they have grounds for this.
, but until this happens, I will probably still use it to bother my cousin as much as in 2006. As I said, this is nostalgic.
