Hi,
what client for matrix do you use? We are using element, but i am very unhappy that there is no possibility to set a message to unread once its been red to remember for later. Does anybody know a client how has this possibility?
Cheers Philipp

This is not a limitation in element.
It is a limitation in matrix. The read indicator (the little avatar that shows how far users have read the chat) can only move forward in time, never back.
Edit: there is mark unread functionality in schildichat, but only for entire chats, you cannot flag certain messages to find them later.
On android schildichat allows marking a room as unread. Here’s it’s store page: https://f-droid.org/packages/de.spiritcroc.riotx/
I’ve just noticed that with a long press on the room you can even open it without marking messages as read.This client is a fork of the official element client. It’s very similar, but it has additional features.
I think schildichat has a web version too that you can use in firefox, but I don’t know if that allows marking rooms as unread.
Hi there, back again and thanks for the ideas. What is with searching? I dont have any option for searching inside chats, how do you handle that?
