I was able to reproduce this issue. Chats I read on desktop still appearing as unread on mobile happens to me often actually. I have to sign out and sign back in on mobile to clear the messages. Assigning to engineering

I am marking this as a bug and not a feature request since from the user's perspective and oh well common sense, marking something as read should sync between platforms and it's pretty annoying when this happens.
