Deltachat-android: Show dates on messages

[gerroon]

Hi

It would be so nice if the messages have dates on them. I am looking at my chat history, and I do nto know when those messages were sent for instance. Some of of them have a portion of the previous meessage where I can see, but most messgaes lack date information.

At least something like, 3 days ago, 1 month ago etc would be nice.

thanks

Ok I totally missed the "date" tags well because my chats are done in long sessions so I had to actaully scroll up a bit to see the a date line. But still it would be nice if the dates are also shown on messgaes "optionally",.

Conversations does it thatw ay and it does not take much of a space.

Or date tags could be shown as overlay in the top section (at least if users scroll up the chat history)

i think this will be the solution in the upcoming rewrite in https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android-ii
