Message Composer¶
What it does¶
The message composer is the input area at the bottom of every chat. It lets you type and send messages, reply to a specific message, attach files, and edit a previously sent message.
How to use it¶
Send a message: 1. Tap the text input (placeholder: "Aa") in the composer at the bottom of the chat. 2. Type your message. The input grows vertically with content. 3. Tap the send button (green background) to send.
Attach a file: 4. Tap the paperclip (attachment) button (green background, left of the text input). 5. The attachment drawer opens with four options: Audio, Camera, Gallery, Upload Document. 6. Select an option and choose your file.
Reply to a message: 7. Long-press a message → tap Reply. A reply banner appears above the composer showing the original message. 8. Type your reply and send. The sent message is threaded beneath the original. Tap × on the banner to cancel.
Edit a sent message: 9. Long-press your own message → tap Edit (from More actions). 10. The composer switches to edit mode with the label "Edit Message" and the original text pre-filled. 11. Edit the text, then tap ✓ to confirm. Tap × to cancel.
