Messaging clients
Write a reply, attach a photo, add an emoji, and understand Sent and Read receipts.

Reply to a client straight from the conversation thread. The composer at the bottom handles text, photos, and emoji.
The composer
Attach a photo
The image button opens your file picker; pick a photo to attach (up to 10 MB). A preview appears above the field — remove it with the ✕. On a phone a camera button also lets you take a photo on the spot.
Insert an emoji
The smiley button opens an emoji grid; tap one to drop it into your message at the cursor.
Write your message
Type in the field. Press Enter to send, Shift + Enter for a new line. Links you type become clickable.
Send
The send button posts the message (and any attached photo). It's disabled until there's text or a photo to send.
You can send a photo on its own — no text needed. The conversation preview shows 📷 Photo for image-only messages.
Sent, Read, and typing
Under your most recent message, Sent means it left your device and Read means the client has opened the conversation since. When the other person is typing, a …is typing line shows under the thread.
Editing and deleting
Open a message's ⋮ menu (or hover it) to Edit or Delete your own messages. An edited message is tagged edited; a deleted one is replaced with This message was deleted on both sides.
Deleting a message can't be undone, and the client sees that a message was removed. Edit instead when you just want to fix a typo.
Loading older messages
Long threads load the newest messages first. Use Load earlier messages at the top to pull in older history as you scroll back.
