  1. Improve the inline display of attached photos on mobile

    The current image display on iPhone with the file properties listed to the side of the image doesn't allow the user to really see what the image is. Instead, the user must click the image every time. The current format gives more emphasis to the image properties than it does the image. When typically the user really only cares about seeing the image.

    It would dramatically improve usability if it functioned similar to the web app/browser. Display a fullwidth image with the file name on a separate row above it.

  2. Function 'Automatically Close Direct Messages' shouldn’t close unread Messages

    The function should only close already read messages. If a user is on vacation and comes after ten days back to work, the user should see all unread messages in the sidebar even if the unread message is older than seven days.

  3. Support multiple AD/LDAP domains

    Currently Mattermost supports AD/LDAP integration to a single AD/LDAP domain. The proposal is for the integration to support multiple AD/LDAP domains.

    We have an open ticket for it in our backlog, and this feature proposal is to gauge how popular this feature would be among our user base.

    https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-5751

    Note that you can currently configure Mattermost deployments with multiple AD/LDAP domains using a forest structure: https://docs.mattermost.com/deployment/sso-ldap.html#configure-ad-ldap-deployments-with-multiple-domains

  4. *.mov in-line or pop up player support

    In our Mattermost 5.0 instance:

    mp4 videos have a play button to launch a preview pop-up.
    youtube video (link) will launch an in-line preview
    However, .mov files have a play button (just like the mp4) but links to download and not preview.

    Question: is there a way to enable .mov file preview in-line or pop-up?

    Thanks,
    Ryan

  5. Add support for Mattermost Custom URL scheme on macOS

    Hello,

    MacOS recently added support for custom URL schemes which allows other apps and browsers to open permalinks to content in the native app (rather than in the browser).

    The use case would be that when you get an email to a Mattermost permalink, and you click on it in Safari, it'll open in the Mattermost app rather than a new tab in Safari.

    The instructions to adopt custom URL schemes can be found here:

    https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/core_app/allowing_apps_and_websites_to_link_to_your_content/defining_a_custom_url_scheme_for_your_app

    Thanks a lot for a great product!

  7. Desktop app: Ability to find a permalink

    There is no way to navigate to a permalink (the way I can in a browser address bar). This makes collaborating with inbound traffic (e.g. a reference in an email) very hard, I end up switching to a browser. (I realize this might be borderline feature request, but the lack of handling is specific to this client, or my ignorance of how to use it.)

    1. Get permalink from existing post
    2. Switch to different channel, same team
    3. Paste full link (or just token ID) into search
    4. Nothing found

  9. Desktop app: Minimize to tray when clicking on the icon

    Currently, we have to close the windows in order to minimize to tray.

    But a lot of similar apps, like Riot, allow minimizing to tray by clicking on the tray icon, which is much more convenient.

    Please consider adding this.

  10. Set default zoom in preferences

    I need to run Mattermost desktop client at about 4 control-+ levels of zoom. Can you please implement a default level of zoom in preferences for text? I doubt there's a way to isolate images vs text zoom, but at least being able to set a default overall zoom would help. It might also be helpful to have an option to control "compactness" of content in that at this zoom level it would help to have text a bit more compact (ie, less vertical line height).

  11. When sharing something from mobile browser to the Mattermost app, it should remember the last channel shared to as the new default

    When you share something from the mobile browser to the Mattermost Android app, it does not remember the last channel that was shared to.

    For example, the Mattermost app defaults to channel A because that is the last used channel. When I share a link from the Chrome browser to Mattermost, it will default to channel A, but in this case I opted to share to channel B. The next time I share a link, it will still default to channel A despite my last share being to channel B.

    It would be very convenient if the Mattermost app would…

  13. Email notification for any activity (without mention)

    Currently, the notification system allows:

    • Getting browser desktop notification for any activity
    • Getting email notification for mentions

    I'd like to have the mix: get email notification for any activity when I'm not logged-in. Many systems allow this (eg. gitter's "You have unread messages" emails), but I couldn't find it in Mattermost.

    Ideally, the system would :

    • Wait a few minutes before sending the notification, to send a mail containing several messages at once.
    • Send only one notification even if there are further messages, to avoid flooding the mailbox with tons of emails

    This would be very useful to follow low…

  14. Limit number of times animated emoji will loop

    When users have their mattermost window open all the time, animated emoji that are endlessly looping can be very distracting and annoying. If they paused after looping a set number of times, it would greatly improve the user experience for me.

  16. a way to secure self-managed Mattermost deployments...

    It is possible to secure self-managed Mattermost deployments w/ Fyde (www.fyde.com)'s unified security and trusted access platform.

    Fyde provides granular access controls for enterprise apps (i.e. Mattermost) and workloads, and continuously monitors access requests.

    With Fyde, you can roll-out strong device authentication, improve security posture of unmanaged devices and remediate configuration errors.

  17. Support external keyboard

    See issue: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-mobile/issues/2512
    When an external keyboard and an on-screen keyboard is used, the chat input text field looses focus as soon as the on-screen-keyboard is hidden, probably because hiding the keyboard changes the screen size and therefore triggers a redraw/relayout. I suggest to fix this.

  18. allow message with slack attachments to show there fallback text in email notifications (instead of sending an empty email)

    Hi all,

    We ran into an issue where messages sent that consist of an attachment as per:
    https://docs.mattermost.com/developer/message-attachments.html 1
    don’t show anything in email notifications. I was wondering if this was intended?

    I can imagine sending the formatted text is difficult, but part of the message attachment is a fallback string and including this in the email notification should be feasable.

    Kind regards,
    Louis

  19. Miniature (icon) Mugshot in leftmost Direct Messages pane, shown before name

    In the “Direct Messages” leftmost pane show a miniature mugshot, in addition to the persons name shown. The same mugshot /image as shown in message conversation list view.

    Sometimes the name is not know or remembered, but the face is not easily forgotten (unless your blind) and might be recognized, when initiating a conversation.

    My list contain about 100 developers, many with similarly sounding names and it would ease when trying to find the right developer.

    When having many contacts often the names becomes very similar i.e John A Smith, John B Smith, John C Smith.

    Which of those is…

  20. Push-to-Talk

    While "texting", I would like to be able to transmit an ad hoc sound bite, so that I can quickly verbalize something without having to start a call session - not store-and-forward, but immediate live voice, Star Trek comm badge style.

    I'm glad I ran into you guys in Punta Cana!
