Messaging

Stay connected and build relationships across the GolfGuiders community with our real-time Messaging feature. Whether you’re a Golfer, Coach, or Trainee, the messaging system ensures seamless one-on-one communication, allowing you to network, coordinate, and share insights directly from the app.

How It Works

Users can initiate or continue conversations through two main paths:

  • From a User’s Profile
    Tap the “Message” button on any user’s public profile to start a conversation, even if they are not yet a friend.
  • From the Messenger Screen
    Accessible via the chat icon in the top bar, the Messenger interface displays your current conversations.
    You can also search for friends by name to start a new chat.

⚠️ You can only search and message friends from within Messenger. To message non-friends, visit their profile directly.

Messaging Features

  • Real-time Chat:
    Conversations happen instantly, supporting fast and smooth communication.
  • Copy Messages:
    Long-press any message to copy its text content to your clipboard.
  • Message Management
  • Each message supports multiple actions to ensure clarity and control during conversations:
  • Edit: Tap and hold on your own message to make changes. Edited messages are updated for both users.
  • Copy: Tap and copy any message to your clipboard.
  • Delete: Remove a message from the chat by long-pressing and selecting Delete. This action deletes the message for both sender and receiver.

🔒 All chats are private and secure. We do not support group chats or reactions at this stage.

Notes & Best Practices

  • Report inappropriate behavior using the in-chat reporting feature (if available).
  • Keep conversations respectful and aligned with GolfGuiders’ community guidelines.
  • Avoid sharing sensitive personal information through chat.
