WeChat 8.0 exclusive red envelope grayscale test: can be sent to a specific person

On January 29, WeChat 8.0 is currently testing an exclusive red envelope function, which allows anyone in a WeChat group to receive a red envelope.

After the user selects the red envelope function in the WeChat group, he can switch to use the exclusive red envelope in the upper left corner. The user can choose who to send the red envelope to. Currently, it only supports sending to a single user and cannot select multiple users.

In the past, the phenomenon of fraudulently claiming red envelopes often occurred in WeChat groups. After the exclusive red envelopes are launched, the recipients can be directly specified in the group, and after sending, the words "exclusive red envelope to so-and-so" will be displayed.

If other people click on it, it will show “Only XXX can receive it”.

This feature is in the grayscale testing stage and is available to some users. This is a good feature for some scenarios where you need to collect money in a WeChat group.

WeChat 8.0 not only launched the exclusive red envelope function, but also allows users to customize the red envelope cover and hide videos in the red envelope. When the other party opens the red envelope, they can see the exclusive video surprise.

On January 24, WeChat also launched the Nintendo Switch "Spend as You Want" customized red envelope cover. Users who have followed Tencent NintendoSwitch's official WeChat public account and whose WeChat accounts have been bound to the Chinese Nintendo Switch console can receive a "Spend as You Want" customized red envelope cover. From January 24 to January 27, 2021, the red envelope cover will be distributed in limited quantities at 12:00 noon every day.
