Thank you for your continued feedback. As many people have pointed out, this is available on mobile today. Support for replying to a specific message is on the backlog for desktop. I’ll let you know when we have progress to share. Thanks.

    We try to switch our communication from Signal to Teams on desktop. It is painful to notice that such a simpel but highly effective feature is missing. We use a lot of groupchats, there is a multitude of topics discussed oftentimes simultaneously, as they happen, and this way it is impossible to quickly grasp what remark belongs to what. Please implement ASAP!.

    Really usefull. It is a shame that we can't have it working on the computer...

    in my opinion, the request to provide a reply functionality should not to be deemed as "continued feedback". this is a must-have-in-the-1st-version feature. It is hard to understand why this is considered of low importance and has not been implemented. I am disappointed.

    How has this not been implemented yet? It should also be possible to click on the quoted message to take you to the original point in the chat it is being quoted from.

    This is really needed now. Apart from confusing our users (because the mobile experience has reply, desktop does not), it's slowing us down and reduces productivity. If I now have to reply to a chat message that's not the last one, I pick up my mobile phone even when I'm sat at my PC. Crazy!

    +1 Please, this is just normal, as standard feature... And already available on mobile... (palmface)

    This should not be in backlog anymore, ridiculous that its taking so long! Its highly frustrating to use Teams between 2 devices just because I can't do a basic reply to a message!
