Problem marking posts as read


 

Somewhat new group owner here:
?
I use the Groups.io app on the iPhone and macOS. My iPhone shows an unread post in a thread, while my Mac shows all in that thread as read.
?
1) Don't they sync?
?
2) How do I know which post is unread
?
3) How do I mark it as read.
?
Thanks

They do not. In fact, I'm pretty sure that groups.io isn't storing this information at all.

On the web, your browser will show a difference in color of visited vs unvisited hyperlinks. If you were to clear your browser history, I'd bet all the messages will now appear "unread."

I cannot speak to how the app behaves, but I suspect they're different only because you've clicked on different things in the two devices.

Hope this helps,
