Start a new conversation thread in Google Chat

By default, Google Chat spaces have a single stream of unthreaded messages. If you use a Google Workspace account, you can turn on threaded messages when you create a space. Conversation threads help your group to discuss separate topics in the same space. 

Important:

• To create a space with conversation threads, you must use a Google Workspace account.
• History is always on in threaded spaces.
• You can’t change this setting.

1. Open the Chat app or Gmail app .
2. At the bottom, tap Spaces .
3. Select a suggested space or search for another space.
4. At the bottom, tap New thread.
5. Enter the message.
6. Tap Send .
