Fancy a new look in <a href=\"https:\/\/town.xd.com\/\">Heartopia<\/a>? Take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamezebo.com\/walkthroughs\/how-to-change-your-hair-in-heartopia\/\">How to Change Your Hair in Heartopia<\/a> walkthrough to find out where the Salon is located.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Chat in Heartopia<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s important to note that the Chat feature can only be seen between you and those on your friend list. Random players you encounter cannot see any messages you type unless you add them as a friend or they send you a request.<\/p>\n<p>But yes, chatting does exist in Heartopia! There are also <strong>emotes<\/strong> you can use, as well as <strong>Friend Emotes<\/strong> and <strong>emoticon stamps<\/strong> \u2013 plenty of ways to communicate with friends. Each message has a character limit, so try not to make your sentences too long.<\/p>\n<p>The speech bubbles remain on screen for a few seconds before disappearing. When you or another player is typing, a little speech bubble with three dots appears to let them know you\u2019re in the process of writing out a message.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Unlock the Chat Feature<\/h3>\n<p>To unlock the Chat feature, you need to <strong>accept<\/strong> your <strong>first friend request<\/strong>, or have someone else <strong>accept a request you send<\/strong>! Once you have another player on your friend list, you automatically unlock the Chat feature.<\/p>\n<p>Simply press the <strong>Enter<\/strong> key on your keyboard if you\u2019re on PC, or select the <strong>speech bubble icon<\/strong> when playing on mobile. Type out the message you want to send, and the speech bubble appears above your character\u2019s head!<\/p>\n<p>Unlocking the <strong>friends list<\/strong> requires you to continue through the <strong>initial quests<\/strong> at the start of the game, as you slowly unlock more apps for your in-game mobile phone. In Heartopia, the friends list is known as the <strong>Friendship Journal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h4>Friendship Journal<\/h4>\n<p>By <strong>interacting<\/strong> with players on your friend list, you can increase your <strong>Friendship Level<\/strong>. Performing one of the <strong>2-person friendship emotes<\/strong> rewards you with <strong>Friendship Marks<\/strong>, which is how you level Friendship up. The higher your level, the more emotes you unlock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An unlockable feature.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamezebo.com\/walkthroughs\/how-to-chat-in-heartopia\/\">How to Chat in Heartopia \u2013 Unlock Requirements<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamezebo.com\">Gamezebo<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26989,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26988","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=26988"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26988\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/26989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=26988"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=26988"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=26988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
