Overview

Unread count refers to the number of messages that a user has not yet read in the chat app. This count is usually indicated by a red dot or numbers in the conversation list, reminding the user that there are new unread messages to view. The unread count encourages users to promptly view and reply to new messages. It can enhance users' engagement and communication efficiency, preventing important information from being ignored.

Effect

By using the interfaces in this document, you can achieve the results shown in the following figure:


API Description

Get Total Unread Message Count

In general cases, to get the total unread count of all the conversations, you can traverse the conversation list to get the V2TIMConversation information of each conversation and add the unreadCount values of all the V2TIMConversation objects to get the final result and display it on the UI. The Chat SDK provides the getTotalUnreadMessageCount API to query the total unread count of all the conversations. When the total unread count changes, the SDK will notify the latest total unread count through the onTotalUnreadMessageCountChanged callback.
Note:
1. This feature is supported only by the SDK of the Enhanced edition on v5.3.425 or later.
2. This feature applies only to work groups (Work), public groups (Public), and communities (Community), but not to audio-video groups (AVChatRoom) or meeting groups (Meeting). For more information on the group types, see Group Overview.
Below are detailed steps.

Get Unread Count

Call getTotalUnreadMessageCount (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) to get the total unread message count of all conversations and display it on the UI.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
V2TIMManager.getConversationManager().getTotalUnreadMessageCount(new V2TIMValueCallback<Long>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(Long aLong) {
        Log.i("imsdk", "success");
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        Log.i("imsdk", "failure, code:" + code + ", desc:" + desc);
    }
});
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] getTotalUnreadMessageCount:^(UInt64 totalCount) {
    // Obtained successfully. `totalCount` is the total unread message count of all conversations.
    // Update the unread count on the UI
} fail:^(int code, NSString *desc) {
    // Failed to obtain
}];
template <class T>
class ValueCallback final : public V2TIMValueCallback<T> {
public:
    using SuccessCallback = std::function<void(const T&)>;
    using ErrorCallback = std::function<void(int, const V2TIMString&)>;

    ValueCallback() = default;
    ~ValueCallback() override = default;

    void SetCallback(SuccessCallback success_callback, ErrorCallback error_callback) {
        success_callback_ = std::move(success_callback);
        error_callback_ = std::move(error_callback);
    }

    void OnSuccess(const T& value) override {
        if (success_callback_) {
            success_callback_(value);
        }
    }
    void OnError(int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) override {
        if (error_callback_) {
            error_callback_(error_code, error_message);
        }
    }

private:
    SuccessCallback success_callback_;
    ErrorCallback error_callback_;
};

auto callback = new ValueCallback<uint64_t>{};
callback->SetCallback(
    [=](const uint64_t& count) {
        // Got the total unread count of all conversations successfully
        delete callback;
    },
    [=](int error_code, const V2TIMString& error_message) {
        // Failed to get the total unread count of all conversations
        delete callback;
    });

V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetConversationManager()->GetTotalUnreadMessageCount(callback);

Unread Count Changed Notification

Call addConversationListener (Android / iOS and Mac / Windows) to add a conversation listener to receive notifications of a change in the total unread count of all conversations (such notifications can be received only after the getTotalUnreadMessageCount API is called).
You can get the changed total unread count in onTotalUnreadMessageCountChanged (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) of V2TIMConversationListener.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
public void onTotalUnreadMessageCountChanged(long totalUnreadCount) {
    // Received a notification of a change in the total unread count of all conversations
    Log.i("imsdk", "onTotalUnreadMessageCountChanged");
}
// Add a conversation listener
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] addConversationListener:self];

// Received a notification of a change in the total unread count of all conversations
- (void)onTotalUnreadMessageCountChanged:(UInt64)totalUnreadCount {
    // `totalUnreadCount` is the total unread count.
}
class ConversationListener final : public V2TIMConversationListener {
public:
    /**
     * Notification of the change of the total unread message count of all conversations (supported by 5.3.425 or later)
     *
     * @note
     *  - The total unread message count excludes the unread message count of Do-Not-Disturb conversations (conversations whose message receiving option is
     *  V2TIM_NOT_RECEIVE_MESSAGE or V2TIM_RECEIVE_NOT_NOTIFY_MESSAGE).
     */
    void OnTotalUnreadMessageCountChanged(uint64_t totalUnreadCount) override {
        // Received a notification of a change in the total unread count of all conversations
    }
    // Other member functions...
};

// Add a conversation event listener. Keep `conversationListener` valid before the listener is removed to ensure event callbacks are received.
ConversationListener conversationListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetConversationManager()->AddConversationListener(&conversationListener);

Get Unread Message Count by Filter

You can call getUnreadMessageCountByFilter, passing different V2TIMConversationListFilter to get the unread message count for conversations under a specific filter.
V2TIMConversationListFilter is explained as follows:
Attribute
Meaning
Description
type
Chat Type (enter 0 to not filter this item)
One-on-one or Group Chat
conversationGroup
Session Group Name (leaving blank means this item will not be filtered)
Not the group name, but the name of the session grouping, see document Session Grouping
markType
Session Tag Type (enter 0 to not filter this item)
See document Session Tag
hasUnreadCount
Number of Unread Sessions Included
true: Returns sessions with unread messages; false: Returns all sessions
hasGroupAtInfo
Session includes group @ messages
true: Returns sessions with group @ messages; false: Returns all sessions
If you need to monitor changes in the total unread message count of a conversation, you can call subscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter to register for notifications. When the total unread message count in the filtered conversation changes, the SDK will proactively notify you of the latest total unread count through the callback onUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter.
Note:
1. Only the enhanced version SDK 7.0.3754 and later supports getting the total unread message count of certain sessions based on filter criteria.
2. Applicable only to Friends Work Group (Work), Stranger Social Group (Public), and Community (Community), but not applicable to Live Broadcast Group (AVChatRoom) and Temporary Meeting Group (Meeting). For details on group types, see Group Introduction.
The following will list some typical cases of pulling with filters.

V2TIMManager.getConversationManager().getUnreadMessageCountByFilter(filter, new V2TIMValueCallback<Long>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(Long totalUnreadCount) {
        tvLog.setText("getUnreadMessageCountByFilter success, totalUnreadCount:" + totalUnreadCount);
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        tvLog.setText("getUnreadMessageCountByFilter failed");
    }

Unread Count Changed Notification

Subscribe Notification

Call addConversationListener (Android/iOS and macOS/Windows) to add a conversation listener. Then call the subscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter (Android/iOS and macOS/Windows) API to register the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters.
You can get the changed total unread count in onUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter (Android/iOS and macOS/Windows) of V2TIMConversationListener.
You can specify multiple filters for the unread count listening. The filter parameter in the onUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter callback lists the filters specified when subscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter is called. The filter parameter contains the conversationType, conversationGroup, and markType fields. We can distinguish between different filters by checking whether all three fields are the same.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Add a conversation listener
V2TIMManager.getConversationManager().addConversationListener(conversationListener);

// Register the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters
V2TIMConversationListFilter filter = new V2TIMConversationListFilter();
filter.setConversationType(V2TIMConversation.V2TIM_GROUP);
filter.setConversationGroup("conversation_group");
filter.setMarkType(V2TIMConversation.V2TIM_CONVERSATION_MARK_TYPE_STAR);
V2TIMManager.getConversationManager().subscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter(filter);

// Notification on the change of the total unread message count under specified filters
public void onUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter(V2TIMConversationListFilter filter, long totalUnreadCount) {
    // `filter` indicates the filter conditions. `totalUnreadCount` indicates the total unread message count.
    Log.i(TAG, "onUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter:" + totalUnreadCount + "\n");
}
// Add a conversation listener
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] addConversationListener:self];

// Register the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters
V2TIMConversationListFilter *filter = [[V2TIMConversationListFilter alloc] init];
filter.type = V2TIM_GROUP;
filter.conversationGroup = @"conversation_group";
filter.markType = V2TIM_CONVERSATION_MARK_TYPE_STAR;
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] subscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter:filter];

// Notification on the change of the total unread message count under specified filters
- (void)onUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter:(V2TIMConversationListFilter *)filter totalUnreadCount:(UInt64)totalUnreadCount {
    // `filter` indicates the filter conditions. `totalUnreadCount` indicates the total unread message count.
}
class ConversationListener final : public V2TIMConversationListener {
public:
      // Notification on the change of the total unread message count under specified filters
    void OnUnreadMessageCountChangedByFilter(const V2TIMConversationListFilter &filter, uint64_t totalUnreadCount) override {
         // `filter` indicates the filter conditions. `totalUnreadCount` indicates the total unread message count.
    }
    // Other member functions...
};

// Add a conversation event listener. Keep `conversationListener` valid before the listener is removed to ensure event callbacks are received.
ConversationListener conversationListener;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetConversationManager()->AddConversationListener(&conversationListener);

// Register the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters
V2TIMConversationListFilter filter;
filter.type = V2TIM_GROUP;
filter.conversationGroup = "conversation_group";
filter.markType = V2TIM_CONVERSATION_MARK_TYPE_STAR;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetConversationManager()->SubscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter(filter);

Unsubscribe Notification

Call the unsubscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter (Android / iOS and macOS / Windows) API to cancel the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Cancel the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters
V2TIMConversationListFilter filter = new V2TIMConversationListFilter();
filter.setConversationType(V2TIMConversation.V2TIM_GROUP);
filter.setConversationGroup("conversation_group");
filter.setMarkType(V2TIMConversation.V2TIM_CONVERSATION_MARK_TYPE_STAR);
V2TIMManager.getConversationManager().unsubscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter(filter);
// Cancel the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters
V2TIMConversationListFilter *filter = [[V2TIMConversationListFilter alloc] init];
filter.type = V2TIM_GROUP;
filter.conversationGroup = @"conversation_group";
filter.markType = V2TIM_CONVERSATION_MARK_TYPE_STAR;
[[V2TIMManager sharedInstance] unsubscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter:filter];
// Cancel the listening for the changes of the total unread message count under specified filters
V2TIMConversationListFilter filter;
filter.type = V2TIM_GROUP;
filter.conversationGroup = "conversation_group";
filter.markType = V2TIM_CONVERSATION_MARK_TYPE_STAR;
V2TIMManager::GetInstance()->GetConversationManager()->UnsubscribeUnreadMessageCountByFilter(filter);

Clear Unread Message Count

After the user clicks to enter a conversation and then goes back to the conversation list, the unread count needs to be cleared. Once the unread count is reset, the red dot or numeric badge in the conversation list usually needs to disappear.
You can call cleanConversationUnreadMessageCount(Android/iOS & Mac/Windows) to clear the unread message count of specific conversations. This is done by passing parameters in a certain format to differentiate between types of conversations. The specific steps are described below.
Note:
The feature to clear the unread message count of specified sessions is only supported by the Enhanced SDK version 7.1.3925 and above.

Specified One-to-one Chat

You can clear the unread message count of a specified one-to-one chat conversation by passing in a conversationID with the "c2c_" prefix. You can also clear the unread message count up to a certain timestamp by passing in cleanTimestamp. If the cleanTimestamp passed in is 0, the unread count for the specified private chat session will be cleared to 0.
Sample code:
Android
iOS & Mac
Windows
String conversationID = "c2c_userID";
V2TIMManager.getConversationManager().cleanConversationUnreadMessageCount(conversationID, 123456, 0, new V2TIMCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess() {
        Log.i("imsdk", "success");
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        Log.i("imsdk", "failure, code:" + code + ", desc:" + desc);

Specified Group Chat

You can clear the unread message count of specified group chat conversation by passing a conversationID with a "group_" prefix. You can also clear the unread message count up to a specified sequence by passing in cleanSequence. If the passed cleanSequence is 0, the unread count of the specified group chat session will be cleared to 0.

iOS & Mac
Windows

Sending a Message Without Updating Unread Count

In normal cases, both one-to-one messages and group messages that are sent will be included in the unread count. Specifically, you can get the conversation unread count through the unreadCount of the V2TIMConversation conversation object. If you want to send messages that will not be included in the unread count, such as tips or control messages, when calling sendMessage, you can:
Android: call setExcludedFromUnreadCount and set it to true.
iOS/Windows: set the message object isExcludedFromUnreadCount to YES/true.
For how to use sendMessage, see Sending Message.
Note:
The setExcludedFromUnreadCount or isExcludedFromUnreadCount parameter is supported only by the SDK of the Enhanced edition on v5.3.425 or later.
Sample code:
Android
iOS and macOS
Windows
// Create the message object
V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage = V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().createTextMessage(content);
// Set not to update the `lastMessage` of the conversation
v2TIMMessage.setExcludedFromUnreadCount(true);

// Send the message
V2TIMManager.getMessageManager().sendMessage(v2TIMMessage, "userID", null, V2TIMMessage.V2TIM_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, false, null, new V2TIMSendCallback<V2TIMMessage>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(V2TIMMessage v2TIMMessage) {
        Log.i("imsdk", "success");
    }

    @Override
    public void onProgress(int progress) {

    @Override
    public void onError(int code, String desc) {
        Log.i("imsdk", "failure, code:" + code + ", desc:" + desc);
    }
});
// Create the message object
