> [@angus](#): > > @topic If anyone is using this plugin on a live forum, I’m curious to know a bit more about your use case. To be honest my attention has drifted from the plugin since Discourse introduced it’s own messages list in the user menu. I am using it only in desktop view because it has a familiar UX/UI to Chat in Facebook. It’s a great way to send out a quick reply. At this point it would be a great feature to merge all messages sent within last 5 minutes into one. Since I use just like chat, I tend to send burst of short messages. The end up being an individual post in the conversation. But for completely new messages I end up using native messaging to set up the subject. And it’s more comfortable writing longer introductory messages there. On mobile I find the native experience in combination with [Mobile Tab Bar](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-tab-bar-for-mobile/75696) pretty solid. So I hid the quick messages icon there. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/quick-messages-plugin/39188)._
