Better Messages 3.3
A release about the people in your chat: polls, Spam Protection with message requests, chat and video calls for bookings, encryption of stored data, and a guest sign-up form with a captcha, sign-in links and a move into an account.
Members make polls in group conversations, chat rooms, groups and course chats, anonymous or public, with multiple answers, quizzes, an end time and a Poll ended card with the results. Spam Protection holds or refuses what accounts behaving like spammers send, with tighter limits for new accounts and guests, a Review tab and Mark as spammer, and message requests keep a first message from someone new quiet until the member accepts it.
Each booking of Amelia, LatePoint, FluentBooking and Simply Schedule Appointments gets a conversation between the customer and the staff member, with the video call of the booking in the WebSocket version. Guests sign up with a name, an email and a captcha, come back with a sign-in link and move their conversations into an account, and members change their name and photo in the messenger.
Also new: encryption of stored data and Invisible mode in the WebSocket version, emails in the design of the messenger, the country and city of guests and members for administrators, Conversation information and the whole messenger from mini chats, and Maximum Participants for group conversations.
An updated site starts Spam Protection at Monitor only, and the mobile apps need no new build. A site that goes back to 3.2 has to turn stored data encryption off first.
