The version number of the flow.
Iron Striker "fixed some known issues".
Today, WeChat officially pushed the iOS version of 8.0.49.
Although it is only a wave of small upgrades, there are several small changes in it, which are indeed a lot more practical than before.
So, let's take a look at the hidden new features for everyone.
Chat video playback revision
In the old version of WeChat, it is estimated that many friends will encounter such a situation.
A friend sent a long video while chatting.
Burning goose, watching videos on WeChat can't be played at double speed like brushing Douyin, and I'm afraid of missing the key point when I jump and watch it.
I finally saw the wonderful moment and wanted to pause.
As a result, the "pause" button was pitifully small, and it couldn't be poked accurately for a long time.
After a set of small combos, the experience cannot be said to be bad, it can only be said to be very poor.
But in the updated WeChat, WeChat has a big revision of the chat video.
Removed the pause button in the lower left corner and changed it to directly click on the screen to pause.
When the video is playing, there will be a double speed option in the bottom right corner.
Tap to switch between 1x, 1.5x, and 2x.
The progress bar is wider than it used to be, and the dots that show the progress bar have become smaller.
But when dragging, the dot gets bigger with your finger press, making it easier to pull up.
However, the experience of watching videos in Moments has not changed.
Although you can drag the progress bar below, there is still no pause button.
Clicking on the screen will still return to the circle of friends.
Let's just say, when will you add a pause function to watch videos in Moments?
Sending videos supports editing
This function, it is estimated that some friends have been waiting for 7 years.
Back in 2017, WeChat added the feature of video editing.
This feature supports videos shot with WeChat camera.
Or you can edit the video before posting it on Moments.
Burning Goose does not support sending videos in the album to friends when chatting.
Other words.
If you want to simply crop the video in the album before sending it to your friends, you'll have to go to the Album app and cut it.
One word, trouble.
After updating to 8.0.49, WeChat finally moved this set of editing tools to chat.
Before sending a video to a friend, click on the video preview to see "Edit" in the lower left corner.
After entering the editing interface, you can add emojis and text to the video.
Or change the background music and crop the length of the video.
7 years, just such a simple feature, a full 7 years of waiting.
Changes to the Channels personal center page
In the new version of the Channels personal center page, WeChat has removed the "privacy" entry.
The settings that were originally on the "Privacy" page are all placed on the "Settings" page in the new version.
In addition, the new version also adds a "Recently Watched" entrance, which can be clicked to see the browsing history of the video account within 7 days.
If you don't want Channels to retain your browsing history, you can also turn off the relevant option in the settings.
The login confirmation screen has been changed
When scanning the code to log in to WeChat on the computer, the login confirmation interface has been fine-tuned.
Originally, the two checkboxes of "Sync Recent Messages" and "Automatically log in to the device" were left and right.
In the new version, it has been changed to a centered, top-down arrangement.
This change is probably to optimize the experience speaker for one-handed operation.
Legacy
new edition
+1 for small details.
"Watch ads and listen to VIP music" function changed
On the "Discover" page, go to the "Music" section of "Listen".
Originally, at the top of the page, there was an entrance to "watch ads and listen to VIP music for free".
Click in to watch a few tens of seconds of ads, and you can get 30 minutes of VIP access.
I'd like to call it the "Half an Hour Real Man" feature.
However, in the just updated 8.0.49, this ad entry is gone.
Could it be that the gameplay of watching advertisements for prostitution VIP music has been canceled?
It's not that it's Ha, it's just that WeChat hides it deeper.
Click on the villain icon in the upper right corner to enter "My Music".
You can see the functional entrance of this half-hour real man.
Recently, several versions of WeChat have been updated, although not a major change, but they have also added several practical features.
For example, the "quiet mode" that I have taken stock of everyone before, emoji packs, etc.
However, many of the highly requested features are still missing.
The old rule, in the comment area, talk about the functions you most want to update on WeChat~
