Just writing “Happy New Year” is boring. We have text tips and suggestions for New Year greetings via smartphone.
The turn of the year is a good opportunity to reconnect with old friends or relatives. This can be done quickly and easily with a short greeting and best wishes via a messaging service such as WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal.
It all depends on the right moment
When is the right time for New Year’s greetings? Sending a message early on New Year’s Eve has the advantage that the wishes will certainly pass, regardless of the load on the cellular network and the condition of the addressee. On the other hand, a time of exactly 0 in the morning is not to be scoffed at, because there is hardly a more suitable time. But shipping at midnight can be stressful and distracting from the people physically celebrating with you. So it’s better to put aside your cell phone at the turn of the year and send your best wishes a few hours before or on January 1st.

- 🥂 glasses of champagne
- 🍀 Clover
- 🐖 Piglet
- 🎆 Fireworks
- ✨ Terns
- ♥️ Hearts
- 🍾 crackling Korken…
You can also compose messages just from symbols.
