I've looked for the place you're editing, but can't find it.

I couldn't make it disappear.😫

October 2, 2023 version 5.16.2 (23409) release has a Drafts tab in the Team Chat panel that allows locating and deleting Drafts. This solved the issue for me. 🙂

Hello @TakayukiMano,

The Draft status next to a member's name is designed to disappear when you remove/delete all the text from the message or reply fields in the chat interface for that member. Please click on the member’s name and delete all text in the message or reply fields the target member.

It would be nice to know where the edits are.

Hello @TakayukiMano,

Please see the images below.

The Draft status will also disappear when you delete the text from the message or reply fields.

I hope this helps.

Please see the images below.

This does not happen on a Mac.

If you find the part you are editing, you can erase it and it will disappear.

What should I do if I can't find the part I'm editing?

Can I upload my video here?

Hello @TakayukiMano,

Thank you for the two images. I see the message text to Anna Negeshi in the Reply text field in the first image and the red Draft status next to Anna's name in the second image. The Draft status next to Anna Negesgi's name will only go away when you send the message to her or delete it from the Reply text field. This is standard behavior. Am I missing something here? Wha are your expectations for how this should work?

I have the same problem. No way make the "[Draft]" tag from next to the user's name disappear. Nothing in the reply text box, it is blank. I meant to send a reply but then decided against it. And the "Draft" label is stuck until I send another message on the same thread to this user.

Same problem. I have a channel marked with a grey [Draft] that will not go away. I have gone through every post and made sure each reply box was empty. I have subsequently posted to that channel more than once. I have signed out and signed back in. I have even updated Zoom. And still the [Draft] will not go away. Is there any useful advice on this topic?

Hi,

I believe you are not in the context of the issue that is why people keep asking for the issue!!!

I have same issue when I am in a channel where people reply message everywhere. On some places, I supposed to reply but I switch to another messages which are more urgent to reply. And so... after sometimes, I could not remember from which REPLIED message that I put my draft message there.... and ZOOM is not smart enough to help me to zoom to draft messages!!!! That is supper frustrated UX...

Hopefully, you and your team take a look into this terrible UI/UX and provide with smart solutions.

Thank you very much,

I have a similar problem- I was drafting a response to someone when they deleted their original thread - now I cannot see my draft, it disappeared along with the original post. No way for me to delete it, and the channel still says “draft” with the beginning of the message I was writing. I have signed out, and logged back in again, and it has not resolved.

This is exactly what happened to me. The message i was replying to got deleted before i could send my reply and now it say [Draft] next to the channel with now way for me to remove it.

Why isn't there anyone at Zoom to fix this issue?

Edit: very bottom of this message thread they have added a Draft channel and you can delete it there.

Hi @Jasin suggest Updating Zoom to the latest version and looking for the "Drafts" within the Team Chat tab in the Zoom Desktop Client. If you do not see this, please update.

Glad there is a planned fix for this. Logging in/out did not do it. Finding somewhere in the thousands of messages where I started to reply (if it exists) is not really an option unless I am paid by the hour of useless time spent. And the 'draft' is in a group channel with all the engineers in the company. Not about to delete all messages in the chat as often I need to search the messages for past conversations. I will live with it until August

Same experience as described above No way to search/find the [Draft] in a very long companywide Channel thread that cannot be deleted. Logout doesn't help. Will just wait for fix. So glad it's in the works.

Same issue here, on two of my chats chat contacts for the past couple of months. I even cleared the chat history on one of them and it didn't do anything.

I have the same issue! [Draft] in red does not disappear and the channel has been in use for many many months now with many members so there are thousands of messages no way for me to find out which was the draft message left incomplete. This needs to be fixed such that when I click draft it takes me to the incomplete message, or as mentioned above maybe a drafts tab like in email clients
