Mobli Media (www.mobli.com) has announced Mirage 2.0, an updated version of its ephemeral instant messaging app.
Mirage (www.mirageapp.co) was launched by mobli in July 2014. The stand-alone app is an instant messaging platform that enables users to send and receive messages that disappear after a few seconds. The app's interface is based on a one-tap principle. As soon as the user opens the app, all of his contacts are immediately available. Even if a contact does not have the app installed, he can receive the message from a link via SMS.
The new version provides two key ways to share an image with several contacts at once:
* Groups - You can create a group and start a disappearing conversation with a few of your contacts in one group.
* Broadcast - You can share an image with several contacts at once, without organising a shared group.
These new features make it easier to send messages to several people at once, while emulating real-life communication with key ephemeral one-tap messaging.
"The new groups and broadcast features bring a wider experience to MIRAGE users," said Mobli CEO, Moshe Hogeg. "We extended the form of communication, which lets classmates, family, colleagues or any group members share a one-time experience together. Mirage now captures in an even more precise way, the essence of human interaction."
The new version features multiple additional enhancements including:
Contact list editing - Drag and drop your contacts to rearrange your home screen.
Inbox - Tap and hold your inbox to see the Mirages you've received; you can view them in any order you'd like.
Search Bar - A new search bar on the app's home screen.
Localisation - Mirage now supports 22 languages.
