After one of the largest Internet companies in South Korea was created with Daum, Kakao has launched Kakao Lab for KakaoTalk, which will allow Android users to test the new features before they are added to the final version of the application. Here we can talk about a new functionality that comes before Android than iOS, since the developers have mentioned that the iOS version will be released soon.
Kakao Lab is a way to give the most dedicated users access to new features before they are deployed, and also the possibility of large-scale testing of the new additions as ideas that the final version will have. The same beta program of Google Play allows this to all the apps that swarm in its store, or as Twitter launched a similar program last year called "Twitter for Android Experiment program", from which one can register and try all the new ones. versions of the company's Android app.
It is not something that sounds strange, it already happens in the different games that exist on PC, mostly in the so-called MMOs, which need to be its online features tested to solve the various bugs and thus have a final release that is as polished as possible.
In order to participate in Kakao Lab, users must register in the program via the settings menu of the app. The two most notable features of the beta version are "remarkable alerts" and "move unread conversations to the top", the first one allows you to deactivate group chat alerts and receive only the notifications you want, while the other will show the messages not read in chronological order.
One more attempt from the company for retaining more users y attract more to test your platform online messaging.
