Daily UI #13 Direct Messaging

this time my idea is focusing on:
simplifying and efficiency

there are too many functions in the chatting apps i'm using but most of those functions i never tried. it's simply because i really don't need them.
so in my idea, i only want the basic functions for chatting in this messaging app.

and it's easy to search chat history or users, the search bar is on the top of the home screen (chat list screen)

and the color setting is a quite important feature in this idea. i'm trying to use color setting to help people avoid messaging wrong chats (this happens to me kinda often lol). so the default chat color is grey (others) and black (the user), and if users set their chat colors, the color will appear on the list too.

in the chat screen, there is no extra text or icon shows whether the message is sent or read. let's be more simple:
- if user's bubble is outlined with chat color: sent but not yet read
- if the bubble is filled with the chat color: sent and read

enjoy~

feel free to leave comments to help me improve my ideas, thank you!
