Do's & Don'ts

Do

Use #DCF8C6 (light green) for sent message bubbles and #FFFFFF for received — this distinction is core to the UX
Keep the chat wallpaper (#ECE5DD) visible — it provides warmth and spatial orientation
Use circular checkboxes for multi-select — this is a signature interaction pattern
Group messages from the same sender with tighter spacing (2px) versus different senders (8px)
Show timestamps inside each bubble at the bottom-right, not between messages

Don't

Use heavy typography — messages should feel casual and lightweight, never corporate
Add shadows to chat bubbles — they should sit flat against the wallpaper
Use the primary green (#25D366) for backgrounds of large areas — reserve it for small interactive elements
