Mark messages as read

You can mark all unread messages in chats or group discussions as read (for example, if you read the message on second device, but on the first device the messages are flagged as unread).

If you select to mark all messages for all chats and group discussions as read, the red badge on the Chats tab is removed when all of the messages are marked as read. If you chose to mark some chats and group discussions messages as read, the badge reflects the total number of messages that are unread. On the chats list, the blue box that lists the number of unread messages from each contact is removed when the messages are marked as read.

    • To select all of the chats and group discussions, tap Select All.
