LinkedIn Beefed Up Its Messaging Features

Expanded composer box, mobile attachments highlight changes

LinkedIn added several new features to its messaging Thursday.

Director of product, messenger and groups Chris Szeto provided details on all of the updates in a blog post.

Users now have more flexibility when it comes to the size of the message compose box, as that box can now be expanded across the platform “for those times when you just need a little more space to compose longer, thoughtful and more formal messages.” This tweak is currently available on mobile and coming to desktop “in the next few weeks.”

In what Szeto called “one of the most frequently requested messaging features from all of you,” attachments can now be sent from users’ phones via the LinkedIn application.
