Using the Shared Team Inbox

The shared inbox brings every WhatsApp and SMS conversation into one place your whole team can work from. Here is how to use it.

One inbox for every conversation

Instead of messages living on one person’s phone, every reply lands in a shared inbox where your team can see, assign and answer together.

Assign and own conversations

Assign a conversation to an agent so ownership is clear. Everyone can see status, and nothing gets answered twice or missed.

Quick replies and saved responses

Save your most common answers as quick replies and insert them in a tap — consistent, fast responses for repeat questions.

Roles and reporting

Set roles so the right people have the right access, and use reports to track volumes, response times and team performance.
