- Notifications: Slack has a variety of ways to customize the notifications you receive, overall and by channel/topic.
- Mark unread: Open the message menu (long press, or menu icon) to mark a message as unread or set a reminder.
- Formatting: See Formatting Messages for instructions on italics, boldface, bullets, and blockquotes.
