Private chats
A private chat is a one-to-one conversation with a friend, kept separate from your group channels. Your private chats are listed under Direct Messages.
You can only start a private chat with a friend. If you try to message someone who isn't your friend, Latte shows You can only message a friend! — send them a friend request first (see Add friends).
