How do I chat with my team?

How are chat messages displayed in SportMember?

- If you have at least one unread message in chat, the speech bubble will be marked with a red number


- If you have not read the last chat message, it will appear in black, thick text with a blue icon on the right of the message


- In the chat thread itself, your messages will appear with a blue background and other messages with a grey background


- Add emojis to the chat and/or reply to a message with emojis
