It's good to keep you updated on customer inquiries and having the chat option on your website is a great feature. The AI suggestions need a bit of work and it can be annoying when the AI takes over generating a response when all you want to do is quickly reply - you have to wait till it generates a reply (which is often wrong), delete it, then type your actual response. It would be nice if we could stop the generated response on demand.

So far so great - now to see if it works - I am reasonably sure it will - the hitch will be how often I can check it and follow up. More stars with more time. Your online assistant was also very helpful. R.

Komisch finde ich, das man heute 13.11.2025 keine Emails versenden konnte. Ich konnte keine Nachrichten beantworten. Alle Aktualisierungen der App, habe ich gemacht:-((

Need to be able to customise things abit. CSS would be nice but adding a logo/image into the chat header would be great too.

I would like a PC/Mac app that pops up when there is a chat initiated. The browser notifications are not enough.

The Fraudulent Scam messages must be trashed. The algorithm can check the sender's url - for example one fraudulent sender was from Florida claiming I charged his credit card...the software can check and see that the sender did not order anything. The majority of customers who will contact me will hit the contact button and be inquiring about products. If they are a legitimate purchaser then the algorithm can see that.

the app works well , but sometime it creates more then one conversation for a single customer , which makes hard to chat , as some messages were on different chat and some on other. for the mobile app , i would need a message notification sound of my choice or atleast a sound that is loud enough to hear , sometimes i miss customers messages because of low notification sound. other then this , the app works well
