Chat Lists
Chat lists help you filter the Chat tab: favorites, unread, and custom lists you create. Custom lists can have their own theme and notification tones.
Custom lists are a Premium perk. Favorites and unread stay available on free.
Get started
- Open Profile → Lists, or use the filters on the Chat tab.
- Star or mark chats as favorites.
- Open Unread to see chats with new messages.
- On Premium, tap create list, pick chats, and optionally set a theme and tone.
Use a custom list
- Open the list from Chat filters or Profile → Lists.
- Only chats you added appear there.
- You can still open the same chat from the main list.
Tips and limits
- Custom lists do not move messages off your device — they are a view.
- Dashboard pins are separate: free 3 pins, Premium 20.
- If a chat is hidden or archived, it may not show in a list until you unhide or unarchive it.
Troubleshooting
I cannot create a custom list
Subscribe to Premium, then retry. Restore purchases if you already paid.
A chat is missing from a list
- Confirm it was added to that list.
- Check Archive and hidden chats.
- Confirm you are on the correct multi-account identity.
Tones do not change
Custom list tones need notification permission. Check Profile → Notifications and that the chat is not muted globally.
