Hello Everyone 🙂

We’re looking to get some feedback from our users on our private messages feature, to help make it exactly what our users need.

If anyone has used or sent a PM can you give us 5 minutes of your time and fill in our survey here.

Your feedback can really help us make improvements, so please let us know what you want 😊

Have a great day and stay safe in the heat! 🙂

Rebecca

I've done it.

picklemewalnuts · 19/07/2022 18:01

Better messages would be good!

Rebeccaatmumsnet · 20/07/2022 09:59

Thanks so much @picklemewalnuts 🙂

I don't know if your already part of our Innovation Panel, but if not, would you be interested in testing the new version when we've made it?

Done it, reviewing how messaging works is a great idea. I see it as an incredibly valuable feature - I've made permanent friends through MN messaging and been able to support several people who were in the same situation as I have been (alcohol addicted partner). I've also received a lot of support - it's often when that support comes flooding in that better ways of managing messages are important.

picklemewalnuts · 20/07/2022 13:56

Yes please @Rebeccaatmumsnet ! I'd use it far more, if it was manageable.

Rebeccaatmumsnet · 20/07/2022 13:58

Thank you @picklemewalnuts 😊We'll be contacting people in around 3-4 weeks so I'll add you to the list!

Thank youuuu!! Have a lovely afternoon!! Flowers

The most useful thing would be able to use it on the App!!

pointythings · 20/07/2022 14:09

@Rebeccaatmumsnet I am not and I would love to!

EmbroidedFlowers · 20/07/2022 14:24

Done. It will be interesting to see what changes come about 😊

EmpressaurusWitchDoesntBurn · 20/07/2022 14:29

Done

MsMarvellous · 20/07/2022 14:58

For messages to be available on the app. I never log in on browser.

InMySpareTime · 20/07/2022 15:03

Another vote for app functionality. It's currently very limiting for app users.

Rebeccaatmumsnet · 20/07/2022 15:23

@BoreOfWhabylon @MsMarvellous @InMySpareTime @MrsTerryPratchett @EmpressaurusWitchDoesntBurn @EmbroidedFlowers @BlueWhat

Thanks to you all. Messages received and super helpful to have all this information 😀

I don't know if any of you are already part of our Innovation Panel, but if not, would anyone be interested in testing the new version when we've made it?

If so, I can add anyone to the list and I'm hoping to have some firmer ideas to test in 3-4 weeks. This might change timeline wise but that is the aim!

Let me know if anyone would like to be involved and I will add you onto the test list.

Have a fab evening Flowers

How much does it pay? Grin

I'm happy to join in.
