# Beta features
|
|
|
|
Beta features are features that are not ready for production yet but the team
|
|
wants more people to try the features and give feedback on them.
|
|
|
|
Before a feature gets into its beta phase, it is often a labs feature (see
|
|
[Labs](https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/blob/develop/docs/labs.md)).
|
|
|
|
**Be warned! Beta features may not be completely finalised or stable!**
|
|
|
|
## Threaded Messaging (`feature_thread`)
|
|
|
|
Threading allows users to branch out a new conversation from the main timeline
|
|
of a room. This is particularly useful in high traffic rooms where multiple
|
|
conversations can happen in parallel or when a single discussion might stretch
|
|
over a very long period of time.
|
|
|
|
Threads can be access by clicking their summary below the root event on the room
|
|
timeline. Users can find a comprehensive list of threads by click the icon on
|
|
the room header button.
|
|
|
|
This feature might work in degraded mode if the homeserver a user is connected
|
|
to does not advertise support for the unstable feature `org.matrix.msc3440` when
|
|
calling the `/versions` API endpoint.
|
|
|
|
## Video rooms (`feature_video_rooms`)
|
|
|
|
Enables support for creating and joining video rooms, which are persistent video
|
|
chats that users can jump in and out of.
