Description

If the message can't be decrypted (yet), or is intentionally not decrypted we show a placeholder message to the user. There are currently some inconsistencies between platforms when it comes to the text and/or icon of those placeholder messages. The goal is to make sure they are identical across the platform to avoid confusion.

The discovery of the discrepancies as well as solutions is happening in this [table](https://www.figma.com/board/lam3gAnDHpTDsI5hLQQDuU/Crypto?node-id=771-943&t=1RumbYbtmqUfIfP7-4) in Figma.

This is a snapshot of the current state.

Research direction

Start with the linked Figma Crypto table and compare its proposed text and icons with the placeholder messages on each platform. The work is done when the affected platforms use identical placeholder wording and icons for messages that cannot be decrypted or are intentionally not decrypted.
