Messages are getting a beautiful overhaul with iOS 14, and it's taking group chats to the next level. As seen in the photo on the left, iPhone users can pin up to nine conversations (both individual conversations and group conversations) to the top of the Messages list for instant accessibility.
In group conversations, users can type someone's name in the chat to mention them specifically. And if the group gets a little chatty during the day, you can customise the settings so you're only notified when your name is mentioned. Another awesome group-chat update is the ability to send inline replies or start a thread by replying to a specific message in a conversation.
