Allow users to choose the Audio device for notifications, including 'All Devices'
In the desktop app, the user is able to select which windows audio device, or All Devices, is used for notification. The option to follow the OS' current selection, or override with your own selection. Sometimes when using the headset as the default OS output device, it would be nice for alerts to be played on the external speakers and/or headset, as chosen by the user

Synchronise drafts between (mobile and desktop) clients
I currently use Mattermost from the web client and an iPhone. It would be great if draft messages were synchronised between the different clients.
This is not something that sounds particularly useful in the abstract, but it is a feature of Telegram and I found I would often write half a message and then remember that I had a relevant link or similar on a different platform, so want to continue the message where I could copy-paste that link. Now that we have switched to using Mattermost, I am missing it.

Customize the BOT tag
Especially for incoming webhooks, it would be nice to override the BOT tag text that is shown on every message. This would allow (for instance) integrations to post to a channel as a user in the external system with the name of the system shown instead of BOT, e.g.:
someguy IRC: hello
or
myusername JIRA: issue comment
There would still be a visual indication that the username is associated with an integration and may not be an actual user, but the word BOT isn't always the best description of what's happening.

Auto-conversion of messages larger than 16383 characters into a text file attachment on a post
It could be cool if mattermost did a auto-conversion of messages larger than 16383 characters into a text file of sorts?
Sometimes, we have large logs and such, which don't need to be search-able by the mattermost search (or present in the DB eating away space) but if there was a way to auto-convert it into a text file after pasting the text normally, that would be super cool
Paste text into message box --> Hit enter --> message gets converted into a text file and sent in place of the post

Direct Message and @mention have different background notification colors
When you receive a notification on your phone, it would be helpful to quickly see if it is a DM or an @mention in a channel. You could modify the notification background color to help visually notify the user vs adding more text.

Sort users by last name in private chat list
In my opinion, it is very usefull to sort users by their last name. Now they are sorted by first name and it is very annoying. We have more people with same forename but fewer with same last name. It is more logical to sort them alpaphetically by last name than forename.

allow tagging of channel that needs further attention
I like to read all my channels that have new posts first and then go back to the channels that need follow up action. But once I have looked at a channel it is no longer highlighted so it can be hard to find. It would be good to be able to tag it or keep it highlighted until dealt with.

Ability to add users to team or channel from mobile device
While I'm on my cell phone, I should be able to access and invite people to the team or channel that I am currently in. Both for users who are not currently on the server via email, and users who exist but are in a separate team.

Allow integrations to add buttons to ios / adroid interface
While the desktop and browser interface have integrations buttons in the top right corner (Zoom / Jitsi), this is not available for the Android/iOS versions.
While / commands work (/jitsi) it is not intuitive for new users.Suggestion is to allow adding a icon next to the / icon in the interface.

Newcommers to private channels should not have access to the past logs
When a new user is invited to a private channel, s.he can access all the past logs as if s.he was a member of the channel from Day 1. I see this as a sort of privacy pitfall, as you have to control your language thinking of who may be invited in the future. That's not exactly what I'd call a private discussion channel.
My use case is that we are using mattermost to discuss our research project. I can perfectly imagine how we discuss together about a concurring project and then later introduce a postdoc coming from that group.…

Support other Postgres schema but public
I have not found any way to specify the Postgres schema that mattermost should use and saw that the "public" schema was in the sql migration files.
Using the public schema is not a recommended practice with postgres : https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Database_Schema_Recommendations_for_an_Application
See first section stating :
"The recommendation is to create a single database with multiple named schemas [...]. Additionally, it is recommended to remove the public schema."1 vote -
Custom channel header to show up in the sidebar
I have several team/group conversations. They each show up in the sidebar as "Alphabetized person's name, next person's name." We have the ability to give a channel a custom header. It would be nice if that custom header could be what is displayed in the sidebar. Thank you.

Notifications when a specific user posts in a channel
I would like to set it so I get notified when a specific user (such as my manager) posts in a channel. This would make it faster to see any questions and he would get a faster response.

Sort Posts by Most Recent First.
Would it be possible to sort posts by most recent first (top of list) so one does not have to scroll down to the bottom of a post list, or at least offer this as an option?

Zoom App - Channel Headers - Higher Character Limit
AS A mattermost app user on mac

SO THAT I can put many links in my teams channel for our zoom rooms, project artifacts, links to drives, etc.GIVEN I'm editing a channel header
WHEN I've added 20 linked items (ex: [artifact name]{https://www.really.long.url.com/seriously-it_needsToBe/long)
THEN I can save

Add filter to show only channels with unread messages (or recent activity)
I like Mattermost but frequently the list of collaborators gets long and I have to scroll between active chats.
I think a filter feature would be useful to show only certain chats, e.g.
- channels with unread messages
- filter by textCombined with "pinned channels" this would help to focus on the active stuff even without giving Mattermost an entire (large) screen.
