I keep trying to use the @ symbol to reply to others in check in (rather than make separate posts), but it doesn't work for me. I'm using a desk top pc...does that @ work only on certain devices? Does anyone know?

That's wonderful! Thanks, Nammu. I can't imagine why it hasn't worked before. Well, good.

It worked for me, I received a notification.

So my @'s are working for some people, not for others. Very stupid.

Hm-m-m-m... I didn't receive this mention either. But thanks for trying! Mentions have typically been working for me in the past. But perhaps something has changed that has caused me to no longer receive them? I don't know. I haven't changed any of my settings recently. So it wouldn't be that. Oh well... there's nothing I can do about it. So I just won't worry about it.

It never works for me unless I type a word before it so if I wanted to say “@ beth” I would have to type “hey @ beth”. I’m asked about this before and everyone keeps telling me it works for them but it never works for me.

Hmm, I'll try that and see if I get anywhere. This is really annoying.

Actually I did receive a mention this morning. So I guess it does work for me after all.

I honestly refuse to use it even if I learned how too..

I simply dont care for it. No offense to anyone that uses it for me, I do not even look at it.

Sorry not sorry.

In my case, I don't subscribe to most of the threads I reply to. So if someone comments on my reply, but doesn't "Mention" me, chances are I'll never see it.

I don't much care for that feature either. I have forgotten how to use it.

I usually don't look at it either.

Not sorry here either.
