iMessage: Enable effects - make messages more colorful

The iMessage effects make the messages on your iPhone more visually appealing. In the meantime, you can choose from a wide selection. You must first enable the appropriate option.

How to enable the effects in iMessage

Since iOS 10, you can make your messages much more appealing. To do this, you use various plugins that you can download from the App Store.
  1. Open the Messages app on your iPhone and type the message you want to send.
  2. Tap the arrow to the right of the input field to send the message. However, keep the arrow pressed.
  3. You will now see a new window where you can select the effects you want.
  4. Either choose one of the effects from the list or tap on "Backgrounds".
  5. When you tap on Backgrounds, a list will open. Select the desired animated background from it.
  6. Once you are satisfied, you can send the message as usual.
  7. It is also possible that you combine an effect with a background. Bislang ist die Kombination von zwei Effekten jedoch noch nicht möglich.

Können Sie sich auf weitere Effekte freuen?

Bislang können Sie aus vier Effekten und fünf Hintergründen auswählen. Jedoch erfreuen sich die iMessage-Effekte so großer Beliebtheit, dass die Wahrscheinlichkeit hoch ist, dass Apple weitere Optionen anbietet. Diese werden durch ein weiteres iOS-System-Update etabliert werden.
