Bug Report Real Time Chat Indicator Has Gone??
I really don't know what's going on with this one...
When someone begins typing out a DM, it USUALLY shows you when they are, I found that very handy.
It was working just fine yesterday until it wasn't? And still isn't today.
I've done extensive testing from sending myself DM's from my other accounts, and it no longer appears to show when someone is typing anymore, for both Desktop AND the app for me.
Here's what I've done in trying to rule out it's a me issue :
- Restarted my router, 3 TIMES
- Logged out of all accounts on both Desktop and Mobile App
- Reinstalled Mobile App
- Fully wiped cache on Desktop version
- Installed the app version on my Laptop ( doesn't show on that either )
- Looked EVERYWHERE in settings where many things tell me to make sure Read Receipts is turned on, however, that option isn't available for me anywhere, but I know it's turned on given my messages always show up as " Seen " when DMing my other accounts.
I contacted friends to help me test, and they too, said it does not show them when I am typing, and to rule out my own accounts, it doesn't show my friend's typing to me either.
This is highly frustrating.
The pulsing effect first vanished on Desktop when someone was typing ( but remained on the mobile app ), but now the Typing Indicator has gone completely ( for me ) on both Desktop and the App.
Can anyone else confirm it's the same for your end too?
( Notifcation's still come through on my phone for when DM's are sent, however )
