Group chats

When me and my friends are in a group chat, things are a lot more fun. HOWEVER there are points when we have to message someone separately to tell them to type in chat because it either disappears or it wont refresh. I believe that at this point, I wont be able to see anything more in the chat because no matter how many times I refresh the feed, it still says I have no new notifications from the chat
