Typing notifications
The Zulip web app displays typing notifications in conversation views and All direct messages. Typing notifications are not shown in streams with more than 100 subscribers. The mobile app displays typing notifications in direct message conversations.
Typing notifications are only sent while one is actively editing text in the compose box. They disappear if typing is paused for several seconds, if all the content of the message is erased, or if the message is saved as a draft. Just having the compose box open will not send a typing notification.
