Read receipt

Read receipt is a feature that allows users to know whether their messages have been read by other users in the channel. The UI for read receipt appears in the message list region of the ChannelFragment class. If a user’s message has been read by all the other users in the channel, a colored double-tick icon will appear above the message’s timestamp. Read receipt is only visible to the sender of the message.

Note : In order to use this feature, you must first create a channel and enable the chat service. To learn how to allow users to chat in a channel, refer to Chat in a channel.

You can customize the UI for read receipt through the icon_done_all property of the IconSet.

The following table shows a customizable read receipt icon.

Note : The same double-tick icon is used for both read receipt and delivery receipt. The only difference is the color of the icon. Default icon colors used for read receipt are secondary_300 for Light theme, and secondary_200 for Dark theme.
