Description
Steps to reproduce
- Tap on any file
- Tap on Details
Expected behaviour
Should there be a "Chat" tab that allows to start a conversation like the web app?
Actual behaviour
There is only "Activity" and "Sharing". "Activity" allows you to also comment.
Screenshots
Web App behavior: Chat tab exists, and I can start a conversation for a file
iOS App behavior: No Chat tab, and no way to start a conversation.
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?
Comments in the iOS app are not that easy to interact with at the moment. When someone comments on a file, you get notification, but the notification cannot be tapped, so it won't lead you to the file to read the comment. Even if that worked, it's not as fluid to comment and interact for a file as it is with the Chat/Talk app.
