Chat

Messages between the people on the staff, inside the app.

What it looks like

Each message is a block in the colour of whoever wrote it, with name and time. Unread messages are counted next to the “Chat” item, in the bar.

Turning it on

The chat goes through a file on the owner’s Google Drive, so the connected Google account is needed.

1. The owner opens “Chat” for the first time: the file creates itself.

2. Staff members, the first time, tap “Confirm the chat”.

3. For alerts on the phone: “Turn on notifications”, in Chat or in Settings. On iPhone notifications arrive only with AgendaCRM added to the Home Screen.

How messages travel

• It is not real time: with the app open and online, messages reach the others within about twenty seconds.
• You can write without a connection: the message goes out when the connection returns.
• The latest 500 messages stay on the Drive and on each device: a new device finds the conversation too.
• The AgendaCRM server does not see the messages.
