Yahoo Messenger Introduces Emojis, Read Receipts and Typing Indicators in its New Update

In spite of being late in the competition, Yahoo rolled out three major updates which improve user experience for those who still use Yahoo Messenger. The read receipts are similar to Whatsapp’s blue tick marks which show a person has already read your message.
Yahoo’s typing indicators are indicated by three ellipses which show up when the person you are chatting with starts typing. When regular emojis aren’t enough, there is the assumption that bigger is always better and the feelings behind it are better conveyed. Yahoo’s emojis have gone the same way.
Yahoo Messenger’s update is available on Apple’s Appstore and Google’s Playstore as well as the web and desktop.
Yahoo’s earlier update, upgraded the messenger app for Mac and Window and one could instantly share gifs and photos with regular messages. Then Yahoo Messenger rolled out an update which included a drag and drop feature which allowed users to share multiple photos at once. It also allowed you to like an image or post from your friends. It was also equipped desktop notification so that users who were multi-tasking did not miss any messages.
The most unique about the update was that it allowed users to unsend something which had an option of reverting back a gif or a photo that the user shouldn’t have.
