In all modern messengers, I am missing:
– an inbox tab, where all incoming messages from everyone would be gathered, sorted by time. A click would lead to the dialogue
– an outbox tab, where all outgoing messages would be gathered, sorted by time. A click would lead to the dialogue
– a “remind me later” button next to a message. This is available only in Slack
– organizing contacts into groups, ideally hierarchical, and viewing messages from all subgroups of a group. Clicking on a message opens the dialogue.
– assigning tags/metadata to a contact such as “conference guy” or “work” or “” and then navigating by these tags.
– smart auto-replies – as done in Linkedin. A completely neglected topic, but it could be really cool.
It would be great if they invented a plugin system for messengers, so that third-party developers could add functionality like Chrome extensions.
