On January 18, WeChat officially pushed the official version of 3.3.0 to Mac users. Different from the mobile version, in addition to "fixing some known problems", the upgrade introduction of the Mac version also has new video numbers, search weChat to add friends and other functions, which looks like the upgrade is relatively large.
The new video number function can be seen on the left side of the main WeChat interface. Xiao Lei found that whether it is the circle of friends updated some time ago, or the recently updated video number, it needs to be opened synchronously on the mobile phone, otherwise it will not be displayed on the Mac version, if the icon does not appear, it is recommended to go to the mobile version of the discovery page management to check whether the relevant functions are turned on.
Most of the content of the video number is mainly short videos and live broadcasts, which is convenient for users to use the Mac version to brush the video directly when touching the fish, and there is no need to take the mobile phone. According to this development progress, after a few versions may also add new features such as "take a look", "search a search", "shopping" and so on, not to mention whether it is good or not, at least reduce the user's dependence on the mobile phone.
It is worth mentioning that the recent iOS 8.0.17 version of the updated chat voice pause did not appear in the latest version of the Mac, which is still a pity, after all, the voice playback pause can be said to be one of the highest features of the user's voice, the mobile phone is updated, it is recommended that the computer side also follow up.
Of course, it would be best if there was a voice playback progress bar, so that users can repeat the details of the voice, and do not have to waste time listening to unimportant information.
In the 3.3.0 Mac version of WeChat, users can finally search for WeChat to add friends. Xiao Lei's WeChat ID is registered with QQ, resulting in many people mistakenly thinking that it is a QQ number when adding. In addition, many WeChat signals are now bound with mobile phone numbers, which is relatively troublesome to search, and the number is not as special as WeChat.
As for the practical aspect, the search weChat signal is still not as practical as scanning the code, but it can be seen that many places on WeChat are moving closer to QQ. In addition, the new version of Mac WeChat also quietly added a batch deletion of friends function, the official did not mention in the update log, or too conservative, I hope WeChat in the "two-way deletion" to increase efforts, this function is also very loud.
It is not difficult to see that WeChat is "stealing teachers" from QQ little by little, learning and applying the advantages of an old social software. As a national software, WeChat acts as the most important part of our lives, and its functionality can no longer be described as "small and beautiful", and we look forward to WeChat paying more attention to the user's demands and becoming a more perfect social application.
