For the newest updates, what are some of the trigger words for iMessage screen effects? [duplicate]
Solution 1:
- Happy Birthday: Balloons
- Congratulations: Confetti
- Happy New Years: Fireworks
- Happy Chinese New Years: Celebration
- Pew pew: Light/Laser Show
Also if you hold down the send button you can access a set of effects you can add to your message like a (Slam/Loud/Gentle/Invisible Ink). Now if you hold down the send button, not only do you get those set of effects, but the effects above with the SHORT list of trigger words are accessible at the top of the screen.
Solution 2:
For iOS 10.2, the messages in the question are the only ones I could find that trigger a full screen effect, no others have been confirmed in the sources I looked at (Apple, iMore, iGeeksBlog).
So our list is:
- "Congratulations" or "Happy Birthday": Confetti
- "Happy New Year": Fireworks
- "Pew pew": Light/Laser Show
Given that I can't find evidence of any other "trigger messages", I think it's safe to say that these are the only ones.
Solution 3:
Just add to the list if you find some triggers. No need to remove the obsolete, as in some OS, they might still be working.
