Practical: How to Install and Manage Extension Packs in iMessage iOS 10

FromiOS 10, the Messages app has
news
interesting features to bring a little life to conversations
iMessage. Special effects, handwritten texts, mobile messages, sharing
music, etc. It is even possible to install
extensions
, which allows you to add even more possibilities to the app. For
to take advantage of it, you have to go through adedicated store, similar to
the iOS App Store. And extensions, there are all types and for all
tastes — games, stickers, practical applications, etc. — all entirely
dedicated to iMessage conversations. Here's how to do it:

In a conversation in the Messages app, new icons have been introduced
appears to the left of the text entry. If they are not displayed
automatically, you must click on the small arrow.

To manage and install the extensions, the “App” icon will be
interesting. A click on the latter takes you to the view of the latest messages
specials sent.

It is towards the small icon representing 4 small gray bubbles that you must
turn. The different extensions that can be used by
iMessage, dont Apple Music.

You must click on the “Store” icon to go to the App Store dedicated to
Messages. Once you arrive at the store, the “Selection” tab displays the
extensions highlighted by Apple and the different categories of extensions
existing. This is where we can start looking for something to embellish our
conversations Messages. There is something for everyone, stickers,
useful and practical applications (weather, task list, translator, etc.), and
same games.

At the bottom of the store page, we findshortcutsof
search (games and stickers for now only).

To download and install an extension, nothing complicated, just
to go to the page of the corresponding application in the store and
click on “get” or “buy” as with any classic app
the iOS App Store, then click “install”.

At this time, you must normally identify yourself to connect to your
iCloud account, then the download begins.

Back in the Message app, on the “App” icon, we find the extensions
installed, including the very last one with the little blue dot in front of its name.

To use one of these extensions, simply click on one
of them.

To remove a previously installed extension, you must go to
the "Manage" tab on the App Store and disable unwanted extensions then
press "OK".

They disappear from the screen of extensions installed in the application
Messages.
