The latest change in Google Messages makes it easier to write messages with more text. Around 14-line text fields can be seen in the message box now. So, typing doesn’t require scrolling. 

People using Android devices worldwide are starting to get this update, aimed at making long chats feel much easier.

Limited Text Field Height

Before, users could only write a short message in the text input field since it had fewer lines to use. 

As a result, people may not carefully review their whole message before sending it. This could require them to scroll a lot because the box on the screen is so small.

The Changes in the 14-Line View

In order to respond to this issue, the update makes the default text input field much taller. 

From now on, the area for writing will be able to show around 14 lines of text before users need to scroll down. When we consider this whole group, there are several real benefits:

When writing, users can now spot most of their messages, which is convenient for reviewing and fixing errors before sending. Such a type of writing works best when you are creating explanations, making details, or composing narratives.

Text can now be seen better. Therefore, the keyboard does not cover as much of what you see on the screen. People can keep track of their ongoing conversations and the message that is being written.

Writing is more natural in this app since it mimics the style of writing in a wider text editor. It lowers the anxiousness that comes from constantly feeling too cooped up.

Small yet Important Changes

The change is simple, but this update promotes a better way to read messages. It values how comfortable and efficient users feel, mostly for people who often talk for a long time. 

This little improvement can boost the efficiency of communication, make people less frustrated, and result in clearer messages.

Gradual Rollout

As has been the case with other Google updates, the feature may be coming out gradually. People around the world should regularly update their Google Messages via the Google Play Store. 

Still, we should note that these updates are always done on the server. So not everyone may see the feature right away, even if they have the same app version.

A Process in Constant Development

This change in the text input matches Google’s efforts to enhance how the Messages app helps users interact. 

Aside from larger and better media-sharing options, the taller text field makes Google Messages more useful and easy to use for Android users. 

With the new update, WhatsApp becomes a little easier and more comfortable to use in messaging.

Final Message 

Although the 14-line text fields look small, they greatly benefit people who tend to send long text messages. Because of the new design, it is now easier to see messages, scroll through them, and type without effort. 

It proves that Google is committed to making things comfortable and better for users. As the new features are introduced, Android users will find conversations in their chats more flexible and easy to use.
