# App chat: search, unread badges and shortcuts

_Release #042, July 28, 2026. Viktor app_

Find past conversations with full-text search, see which threads have new messages, refine generated images, and navigate with keyboard shortcuts.

- **Conversation search.** A search bar in the sidebar lets you find any past thread by keyword. Threads are also auto-titled from the first exchange, so you can scan your history at a glance.
- **Unread badges.** Thread rows now show an unread indicator when there are new messages you haven't read yet, so you always know which conversations need attention.
- **Image refinement.** Generated images include a refine action in the lightbox, click it to start an edit prompt that uses the original as a reference.
- **Keyboard shortcuts.** Navigate between threads, open compose, and trigger common actions with keyboard shortcuts. Customize bindings in the new Keyboard Shortcuts page under Settings.
