Kik messenger, Kik, Kik on Android

Kik Messenger fans on Android love to share, there’s no question about that. Whether they’re sharing photos, videos, or other content with their friends, it’s an almost unending trend that in a big way helped the messaging app gain its growing popularity.

With version 6.4.0 for Android, Kik is stepping the phenomenon of sharing up a notch by allowing users to share photos via Capture, a card that enables the sharing of entire albums privately to your friends or family on Kik.

In addition, the latest update also introduces other new ways to share pictures, YouTube videos, and even sketches without ever having to leave your conversation. Kik has really rolled out a lot of neat cards in this version. We now have:

  • Capture
  • Funny Pics
  • Squared
  • Memes
  • YouTube Videos
  • Image Search
  • Sketch

To make sharing content as seamless as possible, once you’ve shared the content with your Kik pal or pals, you’ll be brought back to your card.

The update is available right now on Google Play. Which card is your favorite?

Update: Kik also added these features to its app for iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch), also with 6.4.0. The update is now available in the iOS app store. We’ve updated the article title accordingly.
