Option to Disable Automatic Scrolling to Newest Message on Mobile

Tom Spander
I would like to have an option not to scroll down to the latest message when loading a chat. It takes a second to load in which I am where I last left off, but when trying to catch up I suddenly get yanked away to see the newest messages. I would like to be able to stay where I am and press the "scroll to bottom" button when I'm ready.

    Has this been answered? I would also like to stop Automatic Scrolling to Newest Message in Android. (I.e. I want to keep reading where I left off previously and manually scroll down to the newest message).

    It also jumps to the bottom if you switch to another app and come back, your screen turns off, or if you scroll down far enough to trigger the next page of messages to load. It's extremely frustrating to read conversation history.

    This needs to be done. Impossible to find where you last read if you're in a big server.

    It’s crazy annoying. If you even lock your phone you lose your place on iOS.

    Yeah this is crazy stupid behavior. Why can't we scroll up and stay there? Instead we are constantly pushed back to the bottom.

    I can't read my backlog at all. You need to read hundreds of messages in one go or scroll back every time you lock the screen

    This bug has existed for over 5 years. This is an extremely embarrassing error to have dragged out this long. Get your shit together Discord.

    Same here. It automatically scrolls down to the last entry when I open a channel, when I switch between apps and come back to discord and when I scroll down and it hits a specific point in the page. It is annoying, because I always need to find the point where I have stopped reading.

    Also, when you reply to a message you are sent to the bottom, totally losing your place. Frustrating! I’m in ios

    This is making the app unusable for me. I'm also on Android.

    This is an incredibly frustrating basic feature not to have! Discord constantly forces me back to the newest message when I'm trying to catch up on old messages. It happens whenever I lock the screen, switch to another app for a moment, or even sometimes just when someone posts a new message. It's incredibly frustrating, and makes catching up on the more active channels a near-impossible task. Please give us a way to turn this off! There's already a "jump to new" button, so why force us there when we don't want to be there?

    Is anybody listening??? Fix this auto-scroll issue or provide a feature to disable it. You are SERIOUSLY irking your users.  Not hard to do, if you really cared what your users think about your app.  High volume channels are practically impossible to read the history.  Looking back in this forum, this request has been our there for a looooong time. So, what's up? You too busy adding features nobody uses or cares about.

    This post is the top hit when Googling about how to turn it off. Disappointing to see it's been a problem for years with no response from Discord.

    Devs: any possibility for a "More messages below." bubble to appear at the bottom of the chat when we scroll up? So we only get incoming new messages after we tap the bubble. Kinda like how Twitch does it for their chat feature.
