Hi, The default configuration should work. Did you have a plunker or jsfiddle link for debugging ? Regards.

I don't get how can default configuration work, because there is no option to make the difference between incoming and outgoing message. Whether a message is sent to me or I send a message, after all it adds into messages array and there is no flag for telling it to change sides. Please guide me through this since I think that I am missing something very basic here. I will try to make plunker. Thanks for replying

+1 please. I have the same question

I found the solution. You must pass them as "userName" and "avatar" on left side message.
