Suggestions for kontalk messenger

Kontalk Messenger:

Kontalk is a chatting app like other social networking apps like whats app, kik, hike etc
its a new chatting application which is an open source app its source code is available on github
and the app is available on play store
Now,
There are few suggestions i would like to make for this app for it to be better

Suggestions

1.Disappearing messages
Disappearing messages is a feature which is used to set a timer on message and after a certain time the message will disappear on its own.
For example

Benefits

As you can see in above picture you can set the timer for the message which will disappear after a few seconds when the message is seen and this could be a really attractive feature for this messenger.
because we all used social media apps a lot in these days any new feature that comes up becomes a trend for some period of time.
this feature could be really fun to use because we can have fun with our friends in group chats or normal conversations by sending them disappearing messages this feature could prove to be really fun and trendy as in many people will love to use this feature.
and this feature will be really good for the people who want their chat to be private and not have any record of it they can just use this disappearing message feature and have their private conversations and get their desired privacy if they want to i would really like to see this feature in future.

2.Chat Color Customization
Every chatting app should have a customizable chat color feature which allows you to change the color of each chatbox making it different from each other and much more attractive you can set any color for different people you chat with.
For Example

Benefits

As we all know seeing the same default theme of any app for a long time we get bored,
So it would be better if we could change color of chat box of different people accordingly
that way we don't get bored of seeing the same old default theme it'll be nice to spice things up a little it will be more fun to keep changing chat color from time to time people love to customize their chats by adding background picture and other stuff.
it will be even more interesting to change chat themes from time to time.
we can assign chat color according to people we chat with.
and change it from time to time.
From above picture you can see that by tapping that color option a whole bunch of color option window pops up and from that screen you can choose your chat color as you can see above that i have selected a color and after choosing a color it looks something like this

As you can see the color of that chat above has changed you can customize it how ever you like
it will be a really good feature for a chatting app we can keep changing the colors of the chat from time to time and it will look much more attractive than the default theme.
I would like to see this feature in future updates.

Conclusion

The suggestions i made above would prove to be very useful for users.
Disappearing message feature could be used widely and would be very viral and it is a good feature to have and it will even help to keep your private chats private.
Chat color customization is a very handy feature to have which enables us to change the default chat theme which comes with app and customize it with different set of colors we customize chats according to the people we give importance to which is very handy.
I would really like to see these features in future updates.

Thank You!
