Speech bubbles for a messager app

Hello!

I recently created an app that includes personal messaging. Now I was wondering if I could add something like speech bubbles (the bubbles your message appears in when you write, e.g. the green thing around your message in WhatsApp)?

Does that work?

Thank you for your help,

Felix

See if this works for you [New Feature] Audio recorder element

I don’t see how an audio recorder could help with a UX question.

Sure. You display the chat messages in a repeating group. Now you can add a group inside the repeating group cell and give it some nice border and/or shadows. :slight_smile: Is that what you wanted to know?

Thank you for your response,

but I did that already. I was looking for the exact design of a ‘bubble’ going away from the side where the person is writing, like that: :left_speech_bubble:

is that also possible?

Does anyone know how to do this?

I would be happy for your help

@felix.zehetner See this post:

We did it by just not rounding one corner.

Though you could do it differently with a tail image.
You can see it on the right side of this speech bubble.

Thank you,

But I feel like this is just concerning a “typing” icon

Thanks for your answer,

but could you please send me a bubble file with the speech bubbles? I don’t get your work yet. Did you use hexagons or octagons for the bubbles?

Polygonal shapes are not possible with bubble element. Gautch is using an image.

Thank you,

where can I find this (or a similar) image?

You make the image yourself in vector software: https://alternativeto.net/software/figma/
