About this app

Tired of switching between apps while chatting? Chat++ allows you to perform useful functions straight from your current chat app! Works in your favorite chat app like Whatsapp, WeChat, Line, Viber, KakaoTalk and more.

Chat++ works like an inline chat bot. Simply type directly in the same chat window to use Chat++!

Image Search
A picture speaks a thousand words! Search Bing images and share directly to your chat.

Gif Search
No need to switch keyboards or tap multiple times to find a gif. Search Giphy and share directly to your chat.

Nearby Places Search
It seems that nobody can decide where to go in group chats. Search Google Places and share place information and pictures directly to your chat.

Web Search
Ever switched to the browser to search for something? Search using common search engines or add your own custom web query, and share links with extended page screenshots to your chat.

Create Polls
You definitely know how hard it is to reach a decision in a group chat. Directly create a Google Form poll and share the voting links to your chat. Now you can get decisions on the spot!

Create Events
Switching to your Calendar app? Directly create an event in Google Calendar and share a link for friends to add to their own calendars!

Clipboard
You just want a quick way to paste text. View and share recent items copied to the clipboard. Also useful for commonly used text snippets like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Share History
Re-sharing is so easy in Chat++. View and share recent images, gifs and text direcy in your chat.

PERMISSIONS

Accessibility Service
This is required to trigger Chat++ by typing commands in any app. Whatever you type is private and is not shared anywhere. The Accessibility Service does not listen to password fields.

Draw Over Other Apps
Allows Chat++ to show a floating window over your current app.

Location
Required for the nearby places search function.

Storage
Required to allow sharing of images and gifs. This is because the image or gif needs to be saved to memory before sharing. Nothing else is written to your device storage.

Google sign in
Allows Chat++ to add Google Calendar events, create Google Form polls and use Google URL Shortener to shorten generated links.
