The new version of Message (Apple's messaging application) brings a lot of new features to make message management easier and even more intuitive from an iPhone.
Text message addicts will be happy to learn that it is now possible to display their contacts' photos next to each SMS conversation. 
For this, the Message application will automatically draw from the telephone directory the photos associated with each contact. If there is no picture, a color bubble will appear with the initials of your correspondent..
