When Flash Messaging can be useful:

1. Imagine you’re giving a presentation, and your phone is buzzing away in your pocket. It’s obviously you cannot answer, or pause your presentation while you start to type sentences. That’s why with one-swipe up, Flash Messaging has pre-filled ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ options to quickly answer an important question. 

2. We all know driving and texting or talking on the phone is a big no-no. So why not respond in just one-tap with the word ‘driving’ pre-filled in your Flash Messaging? 

3. Going for a night on the town with friends? Make sure to send your location in one-tap to family throughout the night!

Flash Messaging is available as well on Android. To get Flash Messaging on iPhone, simply upgrade to the newest version from Apple App Store!
