Today, we're launching our updated iOS UI Kit V5. This release represents a fundamental advancement in how chat interfaces are built, with a completely rebuilt Swift architecture that enables unprecedented design quality and customization flexibility.
Why This Matters
The landscape of chat has evolved. Users now expect sophisticated features they use daily in apps like iMessage and Telegram. Yet the tools available to developers haven't kept pace. Most solutions force a choice: either spend months building custom components to match these expectations, or settle for basic functionality that feels outdated the moment it ships.
Our new iOS UI Kit changes this equation. We've rebuilt every component to match the sophistication of modern messaging platforms while maintaining the integration simplicity our developers expect.
Superior Design Through Technical Excellence
V5 represents a complete overhaul of our design implementation for iOS. Every component has been refined to deliver premium visual quality while handling complex chat scenarios intelligently. From pixel-perfect rendering to sophisticated state transitions, from platform-specific design adaptations to automatic size adjustments – V5 ensures your chat interface feels as polished as dedicated messaging apps.
Our enhanced visual system delivers fluid animations, intuitive gesture handling, and intelligent layout adaptations across all iOS devices. Whether it's message bubbles with perfect spacing, sophisticated typography for optimal readability, or smooth state transitions – every detail has been carefully crafted to provide a premium chat experience.

Advanced Theming System
V5's theming system provides unprecedented control over your chat interface's visual identity. The expanded design token system enables everything from basic brand alignment to complete visual customization. Global theming controls color palettes, typography, spacing, and animations, while component-level styling allows granular control over specific elements.
Our enhanced architecture ensures these customizations maintain visual consistency while adapting naturally to iOS design patterns. The theming system helps you deliver a native feel that aligns with your brand.
