Mark as read

[Charliemp]

When viewing a message, it still shows as unread until I go back to the message list. Is there a setting to mark a message as read as soon as it is viewed? I would have thought that the Immediately option would do it, but it doesn't.

There is - in app settings -> message view.

However, if you sort your message list "unread first" (or "unread + starred first" IIRC) - the "mark as read" is postponed until you go back to a message list or swipe out of a message.

This is intentional, so that the currently visible message retains its position in the message list to enable swiping through all your current unread messages.
