The contact's avatar with a green dot and "Active now". Group chats show two stacked avatars.
Reply labels
Replies show "Mia replied to you" above a faded copy of the quoted message, just like the app.
Sent, delivered, seen
A check circle next to your newest message, or the reader's tiny avatar once it's seen.

Five languages
"Active now", the reply labels and the rest of the app text in English, Portuguese, German, Spanish or French.

Fake Messenger chat questions
- Is the Messenger chat generator free?

- Can I make a group chat?
- Yes. Add more people under People. The header shows stacked avatars and each message shows who sent it.
- How do I show that a message was seen?
- Set your newest message to Read. The other person's small avatar appears next to it, as in Messenger.
- Are my messages uploaded anywhere?
- No. The chat is saved only in your browser and the PNG is made there too.
