If you're like most iPhone users, you probably turn to Messages to stay in touch with the important people in your life. The iOS fourteen update added a big improvement to Messages that makes information technology much easier to keep your most important conversations at the meridian of the app. You can now pin conversations so that they're always right at that place waiting for you when you launch Messages.

Non only does pinning a conversation in Messages go along it above all your other text messages, but Apple added some visual cues to let you lot know which pinned messages are active. If there's been a recent reply, tapback or someone's typing a message correct now, that activity will announced in animated course above the pinned conversation. (And group conversations are even easier to identify now that iOS 14 lets you set a photo for a bulletin grouping in Letters.)
