Description
Marking messages as unread serves as a good indicator to get back to them later, which helps a lot when dealing with many messages of which only some require a response. Thus, all messages are read but some require a reply later.
An existing option is to use the archive feature for this. Leave things in your inbox only if you want to respond. Otherwise put them in your archive and they’ll pop out once you have a new message.
Design Idea
A good way to handle that would be to swipe right on a message threat to reveal a "Mark Unread" button, which is similar to how other popular messenger apps implement this feature. Upon pressing the "Mark unread" button, the threat would become unread again and a blue dot is displayed on the right of the threat view.

I came to +1 this feature request. I will try the workaround suggested, but that also requires users (such as myself) to proactively archive conversations, and it doesn't provide the notification-bubble to remind me to go back in to the app later to deal with the specific item I want to respond to.
+1 from me, too. This is the feature I miss most! WA has it for ages and I think Signal should not fall behind.

Mark as Unread is an essential features for IM.
Any update on this? This seems like a very essential feature. It also looks like a lot of people have chipped in on the discussions on discourse thread to voice the favour. @michaelkirk-signal I'd like to hear from the maintainers:
This feature has been introduced in version 3.10
As @denver-s indicated, this has been implemented, thanks to all involved !
Great that this is implemented! 🥳 . One thing that I miss: when you mark a conversation unread, it would be nice to also show the badge count. Right now there are no badges when you have one or more unread conversations.
