Expected behavior

If the user swipes the speech bubble to the left, the details of the message are displayed.

Actual behavior

So far, the message details can only be accessed via context menu.

Explanation

In my opinion this would be an elegant way to quickly access the message details.
Threema (iOS) and WhatsApp offer this feature.
In WhatsApp this only works for your own messages.

well, before putting “message details” more into view, we should make the dialog nicer and more end-user-friendly in general. there is another request for that at Remade message details and show them in a friendly matter for non-technical users and there are good chances it is tacked not so far in the future.

fun fact: in the iOS “new chat” dialog, you can already swipe-left-for-info on contacts :slight_smile:
