[Problem/Question]
I’m using Sendbird Chat UIKit for Android, and I’ve encountered an issue related to profile image updates not reflecting in older messages. (This issue is not happening in iOS version)
Scenario:
• I have two devices: Device A and Device B, both in the same open chat.
• On Device B, the user updates their profile image
• Then the user (on Device B) goes back to the chat screen and sends a new message.
What Happens:
• On Device A, the new message from B shows the updated profile image correctly.
• However, older messages from user B — already visible on the screen — still show the old profile image.
• If I navigate away from the chat screen and come back, then all messages (including older ones) show the correct, updated profile image.
My Guess:
Possibly an image caching or recyclerview binding issue.
Question:
• Is this expected behavior?
• Is there a way (without fully customizing the adapter) to refresh the visible messages for a particular user when their profile changes?
• Or does Sendbird UIKit provide any listener (e.g., onUserUpdated) that we can use to force the message list to rebind affected messages?
