Threads and replies

Reply to one message, start a thread for a side conversation, follow threads, edit and delete messages.

Reply to a message

Point at a message (or long-press on a phone) and choose Reply. Your message shows the one you answered, and its author finds your reply in their Inbox.

Start a thread

Choose Thread on a message to talk about it on the side, without filling the channel. The message shows "4 replies"; click it to open the thread.

• Anyone who can read the channel can read its threads.
• When you write in a thread you follow it: new replies come to your Inbox.
• Threads don't have threads of their own.

Edit or delete

Choose Edit or Delete on your own message. You can edit for a while after sending - an Admin sets how long in Settings. Edited messages show "edited". Channel admins, Admins and Managers can delete any message in conversations they run.

Forward

Choose Forward to send a message to another conversation, with a note of where it came from.
