reply to messages

much like whatsapp where you can reply to a specific message and that particular message will be quoted alongside the reply. Also the function to reply privately to a message sent in a group setting would be helpful

Thank you for your continued feedback. As many have pointed out, this is available on mobile today. Support for replying to a specific message is on the backlog for desktop. We will share an update as soon as one is available.

Note: This is tracked as a top request in the public forum as well – you can follow status here if interested: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/39353152.

    precisamos do "responder" no App desktop, muitos usuários de minha empresa estão com essa dificuldade.

    Is there any timeline available for this feature? I know many people missing this. Many people simply don't go here and vote. But many people wonder this is not available in teams.

    If you are wondering where you can put that feature, you can put it in the details list of the message.

    If you are wondering where you can put that feature, you can put it in the details list of the message, you can look at the picture I provided to understand what I mean

    Just going to add my voice here! A reply feature would be a great help! Thanks for all the other awesome updates this year.

    On the mobile version, users are able to select which message in a chat thread to reply to and allow in-line replies. Brining this feature to the desktop version would allow a better flow of communication in chat rooms to clarify which prior message is being replied to.

    This function is really required in desktop app in order to have a consistent user experience. Nobody understands why it is here on teams channels but not on teams chats.

    Please, bring this feature in finally! I don't know anyone at my workplace who uses a smartphone version, all is on a desktop working. Speaking on behalf of several hundred people who I know personally at my organization with 2,000 employees. I wonder if I spread the message and get those hundreds to drop a comment here, what would be the result?

    I would like to see this function added as well. You can replay to individual posts why not individual chats?

    Please, please, please.
    As an end-user, I would like to be able to directly reply to messages so that I can keep the context of the conversation central, and specific.

    I agree. This is a critical must have feature. Not having it causes me problems every day.
