Abstract

Systems and methods for simplified message grouping and display are provided. In example embodiments, a plurality of messages are received within a conversation which is accessible by a plurality of client devices. It is determined that respective messages of the plurality of messages are unread by a first client device. One or more of the unread messages are grouped into a first message group. A first overlaid card is generated by arranging the first message group on the first overlaid card, and the first overlaid card is caused to be displayed using the screen of the first client device.
