Original release notes
Pin your favorites: Swipe right on any chat to pin it. Pinned conversations stay at the top of your list. Archive the noise: Swipe right to archive chats you're done with. They're tucked away in the new Archived filter—never deleted and easy to bring back. Find any chat, fast: Search your conversations by name, right from the chat list. Your notifications, your rules: Choose how much your notifications reveal: full preview, sender only, or fully private. Set it app-wide or customize it for each conversation. Mute noisy chats: Swipe left on any conversation to silence just that chat. The rest stay loud. Share from any app: Send photos, links, and text straight to Wave from Photos, Safari, or anywhere else, then send without switching apps. Sharing is now instant: hit send and you're done.
