Ability to "bubble" conversations

Open SoleInvictus opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

I love Talk, but I often don't receive notifications for new messages or, if I do, I can't tell who it's from.

Google's Messages app has an option to "bubble" texts, so messages from a specific person are more visible and accessible, appearing at a floating icon that notifies users of new messages and stays on the screen over other applications. Having this option for Talk would be huge. I might miss fewer of my wife's messages that way!

  • Not receiving notifications is a problem that is / should be discussed in other issues. To get started you can check https://github.com/nextcloud/talk-android/blob/master/docs/notifications.md

  • What do you mean with "if I do, I can't tell who it's from." ?

  • The bubble feature might be added. https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/notifications/bubbles

That bubble feature looks interesting! As for marking a conversation as "Bubble Worthy" we can check if it's an important conversation or not.
