# Marking messages as unread
Zulip lets you manually mark messages as unread. Specifically, Zulip offers a
**Mark as unread from here** option, which lets you mark the selected message
and all newer messages in your current view as unread.
There are many ways to use this feature, including:
- When you don't have time to read a conversation carefully, or to follow up on
action items, mark messages as unread to return to them later.
- You can mark messages as unread when you [subscribe to a
channel](/help/browse-and-subscribe-to-channels). This makes it
[convenient](/help/reading-strategies) to review all the recent
conversations in that channel.
- Mark the results of your [search](/help/search-for-messages) as unread to
review them at leisure.
