2.5.8
2023-04-19
- Message Duplication: In this update, you can now duplicate their existing messages! This feature simplifies the process of sending similar messages to your future self at different times, without the need to create each message from scratch.
- Easy Message Modification: After duplicating a message, you can make small modifications to the text before sending it off to your future self. This allows for personalized variations of the original message to be sent at different dates and times.
2.5.7
2023-02-03
- Display old/delivered message invites in the app. You can tap on an invite that is set in the past (both Secret & visible) and the message will be displayed for you to view
Small update to make it easy to re-visit old Message Invites. If you received a message invite a while ago and want to view it in HiFutureSelf, you can now just tap it, and a preview of the message will be delivered.
2.5.6
2023-01-11
YES! This update includes the NEW *SECRET* Feature! Thank you for being patient!
- You can now send *Secret Messages* to your friends! Simply, type a message, select a time/location, and tap on the Invite button. Select "Secret Message". Your message will be hidden, and can't be viewed by your friend! They can only accept it (and brace themselves for the surprise). When your selected time/location is triggered, the message will be revealed!
This is probably the most fun I've had beta testing a HiFutureSelf update. I've been pranking my friends non-stop the past week :P (sorry gang). Try it out! You are in control! Send secret surprise messages when your friend/family arrive to a location or for certain moments in time! It's a little silly, but super fun!
