Hi,
Thanks for the feedback.
As I don't have a Q10, I have to admit that my tests are restricted to what I can see in the virtual machine. So I may have missed few things.
I will restart working on this in the next days. There is really a long list of things to do, so it may take some time. But I will work on improving these things. I will have a look to whatsapp see if I can catch some good idea.
Best
That sounds great.
You're welcome to ask me for screenshots or other feedback if you don't have other means for viewing it on a Q10.
I would be glad to help in any way I'm able to.
Will do :) From: MagnusOxlundSent: Tuesday, June 2, 2015 20:58To: amonchakai/Hg10Reply To: amonchakai/Hg10Subject: Re: [Hg10] Enhancement: Improve Text Input Field (#57)That sounds great.

Hello,
I made some general improvement all over the app. If you want to have a look, you can find a build there: https://github.com/amonchakai/Hg10/releases/tag/1.3
Thanks for the feedback!
Hi,Thanks for letting me know. Have you submitted it to BlackBerry World, or does it have to be installed manually?Best,Magnus Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone.

It is not submitted yet.
I will most likely do that during the week-end, and it will be available at some point next week.
Okay. I'm looking forward to check it out.

Hi again,I have been trying out the new version of Hg10 the past few days. Sorry it took a while; I don't have that many contacts on Hangouts to test the app with. I like the updated conversation layout. It's easier to write a message and to keep track of the conversation without breaking the flow now that you don't have to scroll as much. I also like the feature that sent/received messages are color-coded, and the centered text field looks nice. There are still some issues with messages disappearing, and editing and scrolling in the input field could still be improved, but it's nice to have an update. Let me know if you want some more feedback.Again, thanks for making the app. Sincerely,Magnus Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone.

I was aware it was still not great, but I needed to sleep over it to find a solution. So I published it like this.
But I think the new version available on the store from today is now good. So for me, this issue is closed.
First off, I enjoy the privilege it is to have Hangouts made freely available on BB10 by an independent developer, so thank you for making that possible.
The text input field spans just two relatively short lines of text, which make up roughly two thirds of the width of the screen. Additionally, the text input field is partly hidden when entering a conversation, and is not selected by default. For this reason, it has to be fetched, by either scrolling down or tapping the visible half of the text input field, and selected manually before you can begin typing as the text input field is not selected by default when entering a conversation.
I find that this makes it difficult to review and edit messages, especially longer ones, before sending them and leaves room for improvement of the user experience.
Here are my suggestions:
Thank you for reading my suggestions.
