Google Messages-style chat
Google Messages Chat Mockup
Not every story happens on an iPhone. This template follows the Android Google Messages layout: Material colors, grouped bubbles, read status and the RCS message bar. Write both sides and save an image or a recording.

Questions
Can it look like an SMS chat instead of RCS?
Yes. Change the message field text to Text message, which is what the app shows in SMS chats.
Can I turn it into a video?
Yes. Press Preview to watch the messages appear one by one, then Record to save the conversation as an MP4. On the web, recording works in desktop Chrome or Edge; on a phone, use the Mimicly iPhone app. Use image export when you only need a still frame.
Is this template free?
You can open, edit and export it without paying or signing in. Exports without Pro carry a small “Made with Mimicly” watermark. Sign in for three clean exports shared across images and recordings, or choose Pro (monthly or a one-time lifetime purchase) for watermark-free exports, higher resolution and share links.
Is Mimicly connected to Google?
No. Mimicly is an independent editor. It does not sign in to Google, send messages or read your account. Everything in the scene is written by you; use it for fictional scenes, examples and storyboards.
