macOS beta 0.2, build 4354 · iOS beta on TestFlight

New

🎙️ Voice messages are out of experimental!
💫 Added a smooth new iOS send-message animation.
GIF GIF support on macOS and iOS!
👀 Added a Follow button for threads. Followed threads appear in your sidebar when they receive a new message.

We automatically follow threads you create, reply threads addressed to you, and reply threads you write in. If a thread is noisy, you can manually unfollow it and we won't automatically follow it again.
🏷️ You can now create user groups such as @eng, @design, or @support. They make it easy to mention or add multiple people to a thread at once. Create one from Space Settings.
🔍 Search messages from Command-K on macOS.

Quality of life improvements

Added a new typing animation and a recording voice compose status.
The macOS reaction picker now sorts suggestions by your recent usage instead of using static defaults.
Choose whether macOS shows unread badges as dots or numbers.
Significantly improved large X/Twitter cards with larger media, author profiles, and long-text support.
The dock badge now includes unread followed threads, not only unread direct messages.
Added Copy Link for threads. These are internal deep links for other Inline users; public links will come later.
Added an all-new Apple share-menu experience for sending content from other apps into Inline.
Added haptic feedback when reordering threads in the sidebar.
