◆You can also “whisper” with people nearby! “Whisper” function oVice displays the range of your voice as a translucent circle. The “whisper” function has appeared, which narrows the area and allows you to talk only with people who are nearby. When using this function, the straight line distance is reduced by about 50% and the area is reduced by about 25%. With this function, even in places where multiple people are gathered or in a narrow space, it becomes easier to talk to specific people while being considerate of the people around them, and you can also “whisper”.
To use the “whisper” function, press and hold the “space key” on the keyboard while your microphone is muted. A small circle is displayed only while you press it, and you can talk.

◆ Easy reaction to chat! “Like” function in chat
You can now mark a chat as “Like” by clicking the “Like” button displayed next to “Public Chat”* sent to everyone. This makes it easier than ever to react to the other party’s chat.
You can also check the user name that “liked” by hovering over the Like button. * What is “public chat”: oVice calls a chat addressed to a specific user as “mention chat”, and a chat sent to all users without specifying a destination as “public chat”.
