Pinning messages in a chat

I decided to describe a common problem in a chat with colleagues.

The fact is that we use different webxdc applications, which is very convenient, in particular, calendar and file synchronization, it’s very cool for work, just great. But here’s the problem, in order to create a calendar entry or attach another file for synchronization, you need to surf the chat to the place where the webxdc applications are sent, or through the gallery > applications, which is also not very convenient when it is clogged with the application questionnaires. In any case, it would be great to be able to pin messages, at least one. I believe that in the implementation it is the same as editing messages, only curtains.

Actual behavior:

I have to return to the place of events every time.

Expected behavior:

Clicking on the pinned message takes you to the place of events.

good news:

while many ppl like to have pinned messages as well, and there are good ideas about how to implement them, it is effort that was just not done yet - in favour to other features :slight_smile:

but: ~next version still will make accessing apps improve vastly: in the upper right corner there will be an icon that allows accessing all chat apps directly, sorted by recently used.
moreover, on desktop, last used apps will be available with an icon above the chat.

this means, you open an app on all platforms with one or at most two taps.

Will the application icons be sorted by the recently triggered webxdc.sendUpdate?

yes
