What if we could choose our chat layouts? I would personally pick “Scroll”.

I designed this putting accessibility and speed to use.

Did you know that in a conventional layout, it takes about 4 taps to move from one chat to another sending a text?

These steps are in order of:

1. Tap on the chat/person you want to reply

2. Tap on the message bar/frame to prompt keyboard

3. swipe left to go to chat list or use the back button.

4. repeat step 1.

What if this can be reduced to 2/3 taps to get a message sent? Scroll Layout seems like a very useful way to go about this.

Allowing you have a preview of chats and makes getting messages across easier, by swiping vertically across the screen to move from one chat to another, and allowing you text messages directly when a chat frame comes on.
