# Activity feed FAQ
Common questions about the Activity feed in Missive.
Where did the Activity room go?
The Activity room has been replaced by the Activity feed. Instead of a conversation pinned in your sidebar, it's now a dedicated panel you open by clicking the bell icon at the top of the sidebar. Mentions, reactions, and calendar reminders all appear there.
Why does my app badge count go up when I have no unread emails?
The Activity feed may be the cause. Calendar reminders add 1 to your app icon badge count when you have any unread reminders, regardless of how many there are.
To opt out, open the Activity feed (bell icon at the top of the sidebar), click the settings icon, and uncheck **Unread** for **Calendar reminders**.
Can I hide certain activity types without losing them entirely?
Yes. Unchecking **Display** for an activity type hides it from the **All** view, but you can still see those activities by switching to that type's specific filter. They are not deleted.
How do I open the Activity feed from the keyboard?
Open the command bar with ⌘/Ctrl + K and type `Open Activity feed`.
When are activities marked as read?
Activities are marked as read when you open the Activity feed. The unread dot on the bell disappears immediately on open, but individual activity items keep their unread styling until you close the panel.
Can I check off individual activities or mark them unread to come back to?
No, there's no per-item read/unread toggle in the Activity feed, and that's by design. The feed isn't meant to be another inbox to manage with its own read states. It's a lightweight reminder that something happened, so you can go check it when you want.
For a "remind me to come back to this" workflow, act on the conversation itself instead:
* **Snooze** the conversation so it returns to your Inbox when you're ready.
* **Mark unread** so it stays visible in your Inbox until you've handled it.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://missiveapp.com/docs/core-features/activity-feed/faq.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
