Central Chat App

About Central Chat App

**Threads** Keep a side conversation from burying the main one. Start a thread on any message in one tap, in groups and one-to-one chats. Threads show up in your chat list, a new reply brings its conversation to the top, and the conversation's owner can archive a thread once it's done. **Polls** Ask the group and get an answer. Create a poll or a quiz, see who voted for what, and keep every vote private to the people in the chat. **Answering for a business, as a team** Switch accounts from a button right above the tab bar. The accounts you answer for show their unread messages wherever you are. Each reply shows your teammates who wrote it, while the customer sees the name the business chooses. Your language and appearance stay the same when you answer as a business. **Your phone numbers** Add more than one phone number to your profile, so people can find you by any of them. **Invite people in** Invite a contact with a link that opens a sign-in made for them. Contacts who aren't on Central yet get their own card with an invite button. Add a contact by typing their number or scanning their QR code. **Find businesses** The Businesses tab opens with the accounts you already talk to, then featured businesses in your country. Search reaches other countries too, and verified businesses carry a badge that explains what it means. **Photos, videos and documents** Documents open inside the app instead of the share sheet. Videos open in the photo viewer — swipe between them, drag down to close. Saved images keep their original quality. **Calls** New ringtones, a call screen you can swipe down to keep using the app, and you can watch a screen someone shares from their computer. A ring stops as soon as the call ends anywhere else. **Notifications** Tapping a notification opens the right chat in the right account. Voice notes play straight from the notification, and messages show the sender's photo. **More reliable** The app reconnects by itself when your network comes back, and tells you while you are offline. The Devices screen tells you which device is which. Plus many fixes so your encrypted messages open on every one of your devices.
