New “camera effects” might soon be added to Google Messages

Because of Google’s GMS requirements, a lot of high-end Android smartphones come pre-installed with Google Messages as the default messaging software. Most users don’t mind using it for everyday communication because it’s a decent app as well. Regular users of Google Messages should anticipate more interesting features like possible camera effects and an improved overall appearance.

Google Messages has several signals that TheSpAndroid discovered that hint at future functionality. One is that, in addition to the camera app on your phone, Google Messages has its own built-in camera feature.

Google Messages Camera Effects

There could be effects features added to this camera shortly. Although there isn’t any additional information available, Google will probably provide you the option to toggle the effects. Clicking the search icon within the program brings up a list of recently and often contacted individuals using Google Messages‘ top contact’s function. Though the option seems more like something used for internal debugging, this functionality might be removed in the future.

Likewise, the draft message preview is taken off the main screen by a new flag. This makes the app’s home screen appear cleaner while concealing a useful function. Drafts at the top of the list serve as a prompt to act; allowing them to disappear back into the chat list will probably result in a large number of messages being mentally sent but never transmitted. We assume that this can possibly be a flag for internal debugging.

Which of these adjustments Google decides to make permanent for Google Messages will have to wait and be seen. If they work out well, camera effects would be good to have.
