How to pin important ChatGPT messages

When a ChatGPT thread gets long, pinned messages keep the important parts visible instead of buried between follow-ups.

Pinned
Quick answer

With Superpower ChatGPT, each ChatGPT message gets a bookmark icon below it. Click the bookmark icon to pin the message. Pinned messages show a highlighted background in the conversation, and you can view, search, open, or unpin them from the pinned messages section of the manager.

01

Find the bookmark icon under a message

Superpower adds a bookmark icon below each ChatGPT message, next to the other message actions. Use it on answers, instructions, source notes, decisions, or any message you need again later.

Assistant Keep the launch decision and source note together.
02

Click the bookmark icon to pin the message

After you click the bookmark icon, the message becomes pinned and the conversation highlights that message so it is easy to spot while scrolling.

05

Unpin messages you no longer need

When a pinned message is no longer important, remove it from the pinned messages section so the list stays focused.

Old decisionNo longer needed

Pin strategy

Pin the message, not the whole conversation.

Pin final decisions, reusable instructions, source references, or answer sections you will need again.
Use pins for messages that should stay findable even after the thread becomes long.
Search pinned messages when you remember the point but not the original conversation.
Unpin old context when a decision changes or the message no longer matters.
Use pinned messages together with notes, highlights, and exports when preparing a handoff or saved record.
