Witt & Play’s messaging system keeps all communication tied to the games you care about. Instead of a generic chat inbox, every conversation is anchored to a specific game session. You can discuss logistics with your fellow players, coordinate arrival times, and message the host — all without leaving the app.Documentation Index

The unified messages inbox
Open Messages from the main navigation to reach the unified inbox. The inbox loads two types of game threads:- Host threads — games you created. You can see messages from all approved participants.
- Play threads — games where you are an approved participant (but not the host).
Filtering the inbox
Two sets of tabs at the top of the inbox let you narrow what you see: Role tabs:| Tab | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Host | Only threads for games you are hosting |
| Play | Only threads for games you have joined as a participant |
| All | Both host and play threads |
| Tab | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Upcoming | Threads for games that haven’t started yet |
| Past | Threads for games whose start time has passed |
| All | All threads regardless of date |
Game discussion threads
Each game has a single discussion thread shared by the host and all approved participants. The thread is the right place for:- Confirming attendance closer to game day
- Sharing equipment reminders
- Posting last-minute location changes
Only the host and approved participants can read and post in a game’s discussion thread. Members with a pending or waitlisted status do not have access.
Direct messages
Direct messages (DMs) between members are also surfaced in the unified inbox. When you send a join request with an optional message, that message is delivered to the host as an in-app direct message. The host can reply, and the conversation continues as a DM thread separate from the game’s group discussion.Unread badges
Game cards on the Browse feed and in My Games display an unread badge — a small pill in the top-right corner of the card showing a message bubble icon and a count (“3 new”). The badge appears when there are comments or messages in a game thread that you haven’t seen yet. Opening the game detail page marks those comments as read and clears the badge.Push notifications for new messages
Witt & Play uses the browser Web Push API to deliver notifications for new messages and game updates. The platform requests notification permission the first time you open a game detail page in a new browser session.Grant notification permission
