Chat & AI
Finding your way around a long chat
Search inside a conversation, jump straight to a question, and get back to the bottom.
Step 1
Search in conversation
Press the round magnifier at the top right of the conversation, or in the top bar on a phone.
Step 2
Step through the matches
A search bar floats at the top. Type and every match is highlighted in yellow, with a counter. Enter or the down arrow moves to the next match, Shift+Enter or the up arrow to the previous one; the cross or Escape closes the search.
Step 3
Jump to a question
Once a chat has ten or more messages, a rail of small dots appears on the right, one per question you asked. Hover or press it to see them in order, each with its time and first words. Press one to jump there; the message flashes so you can spot it. On a phone a round list button opens the same list as Jump to message.
Step 4
Back to the bottom
Scroll up and a round chevron appears in the lower right. Press it to return to the newest message. Older messages load as you scroll up, so a long chat never has to be opened in pieces.
Step 5
Days and dates
Messages are separated by Today, Yesterday and dates, and while you scroll a date pill floats at the top to show where you are.
Step 6
Long messages fold
A very long message of your own folds behind Read more, so the chat stays scannable. Show less folds it again.
Try it in Secretary, or create an account to get started.
