# Chats
The Chats screen shows a list of your active chats on Wusoup!
By default these are sorted by **most recent message**:
![[Assets/ss-inbox-by-recent.png]]
You can change the **sort order**, show only [[Usage/Pinning|pinned]] chats, or filter by whose turn it is to write:
![[Assets/ss-inbox-controls.png]]
## Searching your chats list
Use the **...** menu to show search.
Search can help you quickly find chats by username, profile text, tags, or recent message text.
## Loading more chats
Wusoup shows your most relevant chats first.
Use **Load more** at the bottom of your chats list to show additional older chats.
## Removing from your chats list
You generally want to try keep your chats list short, to make it easy to **see the folks you're actively chatting with**.
Feel free to use **Remove from your chats list** for chats that are no longer relevant:
![[Assets/ss-inbox-remove.png]]
This isn't the same as [[Usage/Blocking|blocking]]. If you get a new message in a chat you've removed from your chats list, the whole chat **will show up** again.
## Removing stale chats
Use the **...** menu to remove stale chats. Wusoup will suggest long-dormant chats that can be safely removed from your chats list.
- You'll get a chance to confirm before anything is removed.
- Removed chats will reappear if the user messages you again.
