- Earlier this year, Google Messages started working on threaded replies for media in conversations.
- The app is now developing the ability to directly swipe from one media item to another.
- You can also access all the media from a conversation in the chat’s detail view.

With RCS support for high-quality images in chats, we were excited earlier this year when we spotted development work towards letting you reply to media like pictures or videos in a thread. Now we’re checking out a further tweak that could make it easier to deal with a whole bunch of media all in one conversation.
