Separate Conversations

Each open conversation can only be viewed from its related issue. If a user contacts you using any of the methods mentioned here, the conversation will appear in the chats page of your dashboard.

If you reply to a user who reported a specific bug, you can only access that conversation from that specific bug report. The same is true for survey responses.

Reply to User

Let's say a user reported a bug, and you wanted to acknowledge the user, letting them know that a fix is on the way. You can do this by reaching out to them directly from the bug report in your dashboard using the Reply to User button (or View Conversation if one already exists) as shown below.

By default, your users will receive an in-app notification, then an email if they miss the notification.

You can have conversations with your app users without ever having to leave the bugs page.

Chat Icons

You can easily see if you have are any unread messages from users by checking the icons in your list of bug reports.

There are three different chat icons that indicate which bug reports contain conversations.

• Blue chat icon with red dot: You have a new unread message from the user.
• Blue chat icon only: You read the message but didn't reply (the user sent the last message in the conversation).
• Grey chat icon with arrow: You have replied to this user (you sent the last message in the conversation).
• No icon: There is no conversation in this bug report.

Your bugs are also sorted so that the reports with the newest messages appear first instead of when the bug was first reported. This resurfaces the reports that require your attention instead of staying buried in your bugs list.

"Closed" bug reports that receive new messages are automatically changed back to "In Progress" and will appear in your list.
