**Category:** new-feature **User Impact:** Mobile users can copy permalinks, revisit, follow, and manage messages through a clearer long-press menu that matches desktop capabilities. **Problem:** The mobile message menu exposed only a small subset of desktop actions, and important workflows such as copying a permalink or scheduling a reminder were unavailable or hard to discover. **Solution:** Bring applicable desktop actions to mobile using native patterns, promote Reply, Copy link, and Remind me above the fold, and group the remaining actions by intent in a scrollable sheet. **Intentional behavior changes (per review):** - The quick-reaction row goes from 6 emojis to 4 (👀 and 🙏 dropped) to make room for larger 52px tap targets alongside the `+` picker, which still offers the full set. - **Copy link — not a native share sheet — is the permalink path.** An earlier revision shipped a `share_plus` Share message row; it was removed in review since Copy link covers the job and custom-scheme `buzz://` URIs are handled inconsistently by share targets. Native share can return as a follow-up with an https fallback. - Mark unread is message-scoped and session-local: it forces just that message unread (surfacing its channel as unread), and message-level Mark read can never clear a channel-level unread set from the channel tile. <details> <summary>File changes</summary> **mobile/lib/features/channels/channels_provider.dart** Feeds followed thread roots into unread and notification evaluation so following a thread has meaningful behavior. **mobile/lib/features/channels/message_actions.dart** Reworks the long-press sheet with promoted fast actions, message links, reminders, read state, thread following, and clearer action grouping while preserving existing guards. Quick-reaction circles share one extracted widget. **mobile/lib/features/channels/read_state/message_read_state.dart** Centralizes message-level unread evaluation across channel, message, and thread markers; channel-level forced unread deliberately does not leak into message state. **mobile/lib/features/channels/read_state/read_state_provider.dart** Forced-unread flags are per-context (channel id or `msg:` key) mapped to their channel, so message- and channel-level unread choices round-trip independently. **mobile/lib/features/channels/thread_follows/thread_follows_provider.dart** Exposes per-identity thread follow state to the message menu and notification pipeline. **mobile/lib/features/channels/thread_follows/thread_follows_storage.dart** Persists a bounded, validated set of followed thread roots on the device. **mobile/lib/shared/reminders/remind_me_later_sheet.dart** Adds reminder presets and a native custom date/time flow for deferring a message. Lives under `shared/` so the channels feature never imports another feature module. Cancelling the custom picker keeps the preset sheet open; submission failures show stable copy and log the underlying error. **mobile/lib/shared/reminders/reminder_service.dart** Creates desktop-compatible, self-encrypted kind-30300 reminder events. **mobile/lib/shared/reminders/reminder_time_presets.dart** Defines reminder choices that match the desktop experience. **mobile/lib/shared/deeplink/deep_link.dart** Builds canonical Buzz message links, including thread context when present. **mobile/lib/shared/relay/nostr_models.dart** Adds the reminder event kind to the shared Nostr model constants. **mobile/lib/shared/widgets/sheet_divider.dart** Shared bottom-sheet section divider used by the message actions and reminder sheets. **mobile/test/features/channels/message_actions_test.dart** Covers action visibility and guards, promoted actions, read/unread round-tripping (including channel- vs message-level force isolation), thread follows, and canonical links. **mobile/test/features/channels/read_state/message_read_state_test.dart** Covers unread precedence for channel, message, and thread contexts. **mobile/test/features/channels/thread_follows/thread_follows_storage_test.dart** Covers follow persistence, identity separation, validation, and storage bounds. **mobile/test/shared/reminders/reminder_service_test.dart** Covers reminder payloads, tags, crypto round-tripping, and preset behavior. **mobile/test/features/channels/read_state/read_state_provider_test.dart** Drives the production ReadStateNotifier/ReadStateManager (no fake bookkeeping) through message unread → read → unread round-trips, explicit channel-level Mark read clearing forced messages, and automatic channel-open reads preserving them. **mobile/test/shared/reminders/remind_me_later_sheet_test.dart** Covers custom-picker cancel keeping the sheet open, stable failure copy without the raw error, and the happy preset path. **mobile/test/shared/deeplink/deep_link_test.dart** Covers canonical top-level and threaded message-link generation. </details> ## Reproduction steps 1. Run the mobile app with a signed-in identity and open a channel containing regular messages and threads. 2. Long-press a message and confirm reactions plus Reply, Copy link, and Remind me appear as fast actions above the fold. 3. Use Copy link; confirm the resulting `buzz://message` link opens the correct channel and thread context. 4. Toggle Mark unread/Mark read and Follow thread/Unfollow thread, reopening the sheet to confirm each state changes correctly. Force a channel unread from the channel tile, then mark a message read — the channel stays unread. 5. Choose a reminder preset and a custom date/time; confirm the reminder is created and appears in the desktop reminder experience. Cancel the custom date picker and confirm the reminder sheet stays open. 6. Long-press a system message and a message you cannot manage; confirm utility and destructive actions remain appropriately hidden. ## Screenshots / demos <img width="1206" height="2622" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/81096cd6-329b-408f-bcff-712e23b268a4" /> --------- Signed-off-by: Taylor Ho <taylorkmho@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: npub1223z34hd7vtwc6qj4s7flsxkj644nlre2nthu7lrrmkumhu3xddsrx9r6w <52a228d6edf316ec6812ac3c9fc0d696ab59fc7954d77e7be31eedcddf91335b@buzz.block.builderlab.xyz>
Buzz Mobile
Flutter mobile client for Buzz.
Setup
cd mobile
flutter pub get
Run
# From repo root (recommended — starts Docker, relay, and simulator):
just mobile-dev
# Direct (requires services and relay already running):
cd mobile && flutter run
Worktree-aware debug identity
Debug builds produced from a git worktree get a unique app identifier keyed
to the worktree directory name (com.buzz.buzzMobile.<slug> on iOS,
xyz.block.buzz.mobile.<slug> on Android) plus a display-only branch label
in the app name (Buzz (my-branch), or a short SHA when the worktree is
detached). Because the identifier follows the directory rather than the
branch, one worktree keeps exactly one installed app — and its login state —
across branch switches, and builds from multiple worktrees install side by
side, mirroring the desktop dev experience. Release and profile builds
always keep the production identity and name.
just mobile-dev and just mobile-build-android apply this automatically by
running scripts/mobile-worktree-overrides.sh, which writes two gitignored
files:
mobile/ios/Flutter/WorktreeOverrides.xcconfig(included by Debug builds only; a developer'sAppOverrides.xcconfigis included after it, so app-specific overrides like a personalBUNDLE_IDENTIFIERfor device signing always win)mobile/android/worktree.properties(read by the debug build type only)
For direct Xcode / Android Studio / flutter run development, run
./scripts/mobile-worktree-overrides.sh from the repo root once per branch
switch to refresh the display label (the install identity never changes);
the persisted files are then picked up by any subsequent build. In the main
checkout the script is a no-op that removes stale override files, restoring
the plain Buzz identity.
To remove leftover worktree-suffixed installs from booted iOS simulators and
connected Android emulators, run just mobile-clean (add --dry-run via
./scripts/mobile-worktree-clean.sh --dry-run to preview). Production
installs are never touched.

Android release signing
Android release builds fail unless all upload-key inputs are supplied through the environment:
BUZZ_ANDROID_UPLOAD_KEYSTORE_PATH: path to a CI-vended keystore fileBUZZ_ANDROID_UPLOAD_KEYSTORE_PASSWORDBUZZ_ANDROID_UPLOAD_KEY_ALIASBUZZ_ANDROID_UPLOAD_KEY_PASSWORD
The keystore path must be absolute, and the keystore must remain outside the repository. Development and debug builds do not require these variables.
Release pipelines that sign through the central APK Signer service instead of
a local upload keystore must set BUZZ_ANDROID_RELEASE_SIGNING=external. That
mode produces an unsigned release bundle and refuses to run if any
BUZZ_ANDROID_UPLOAD_* value is also set.
