Features: Chat Titles

# Feature: Chat Title Management and Sorting

## The Problem

Venice currently auto-generates chat titles from the first few words of each prompt.  

While this approach is functional and common across AI chat platforms, it lacks flexibility — **users cannot rename or reorganize their chats**.

This limitation frequently results in unclear, generic, or misleading chat titles, creating unnecessary friction and confusion.  

As a consequence, users are often forced to:

- **Manually scroll through long conversation lists** to recall what each chat contained.  

  - *Inefficient once many chats accumulate or as time passes.*

- **Keep unrelated topics within the same chat** simply because they appear similar.  

  - *For instance, a discussion beginning with iPhone settings may shift to Android topics but remains under the same title.*

- **Spend excessive time deleting or merging chats** to maintain organization.  

  - *This drains productivity and adds friction to everyday use.*

- **Rely on competing platforms** (e.g., OpenAI ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot) for serious or ongoing projects.  

  - *This splits user attention and undermines Venice’s ecosystem.*

- **Accidentally delete valuable information** due to poor organization tools.  

  - *Compounding an already frustrating experience.*

## Proposed Solutions

- **Manual Title Editing**  

  Allow users to rename chats directly via:

  - Long-press context menu, or  

  - “Edit title” icon/text area within the chat header.

- **Context-Aware Automatic Updates**  

  Enable Venice to dynamically revise chat titles when the conversation focus changes.  

  - *Example:* A discussion on *Xbox circuitry* that expands into *Xbox vs Sony hardware comparisons* could automatically rename itself to **“Console Hardware Comparison.”**  

  - Include a simple **on/off toggle** in user settings for those who prefer fixed titles.

## Bonus Enhancements

- **Chat Groups / Project Folders**  

  Organize related conversations under shared categories or projects for cleaner navigation.

- **Custom Title Colors**  

  Let users assign colors to chats or folders for quick visual identification.

- **Temporary Chats**  

  Create sessions that automatically delete after a set duration or upon logout, ideal for disposable queries.

- **Bulk Management Tools**  

  Support multi-select deletion or archival by group, color, or keyword match.

## Expected Impact

Implementing these features would substantially improve user workflow and satisfaction by enabling:

- Rapid recall of past conversations.  

- Logical grouping of related discussions.  

- Cleaner, context-specific dialogue organization.  

- Faster, lower-friction chat management.

Ultimately, this would make Venice AI **feel more polished, professional, and user-centric**—while enhancing retention and long-term engagement.
