Sorry, I can't help here. I'm gonna unassign myself because I have school stuff going on 📚

[Beamanator]

Removing Help Wanted for now b/c I believe this behavior is expected, when looking at the PR that added (archived) here: #8447

[Beamanator]

@kavimuru can you please mention who reported this issue in the OP? Also in the screenshots you posted, it would be nice if you could clarify that the first one is from the QA steps in this PR: #8437 and the second screenshot is what you're actually seeing :D

[Beamanator]

Putting on hold to confirm if this is a bug or not

[TomatoToaster]

Cross posting here in this issue from here to confirm, but yes this is not a bug and is intended behavior.

If this ever happens for a non-workspace chat, it is definitely a bug.

[michaelhaxhiu]

@Beamanator @TomatoToaster So do we want to make this a feature request (since it's not a bug), or close it?

[TomatoToaster]

Oh yes sorry let's close it. I'm realizing I didn't close with comment.

[TomatoToaster]

This behavior should be fixed and universal (work same on iOS and android) with this PR: #8751. If that's not the case when this PR is being QA'ed, then we could reopen this to make sure it works the same in iOS and android.

[michaelhaxhiu]

I'll check back on this on Friday. Let's leave closed till then

[Beamanator]

Awesome thanks for closing this out and confirming it's expected @TomatoToaster 👍
