Thank you. I also like it better than the first version.

I kno of cases with less similarity in work of designers/companies who
got sued and lost upon court. Theres a risk but not so much like b4, so its up to you guys.

Yes, the similarity is still there. But the same goes to the app name "Wazapp": It's not the original name but if you know the original WhatsApp messenger you'll know that it was the reference for this app.

Mayb better to try to make the peak smaller. A more drastic way would be not to use a circle form.

If this is a option for you and tgalal I can help you and give you some ideas or even sum mockups. Jus holla at me.

I've included the Illustrator source file in the zip package, so feel free to design a new icon and post it here. But of course it's up to tgalal to decide which icon he'll include.

We'll, nice idea in theory, but i don't think this will work because people wouldn't recognize it as a bubble anymore.
