Who’s on it, live

See who is reading a conversation and who is writing a reply, as it happens. If a colleague is already answering, you know before you start, so no customer gets two replies.

The inbox, with a conversation assigned to a colleague.

What it does

Never answer twice

  • Who is here now

    The conversation’s top bar shows the faces of everyone looking at it, then everyone who can see it.

  • Who is writing

    A colleague writing a reply shows on the conversation’s row in the list too, before you open it.

  • A warning, not a wall

    A strip warns you when someone else is replying, and Send asks first if their reply went out meanwhile.

  • Typing and away

    A typing line shows in team chat, and someone idle for two minutes shows as away.

How it works

Just open a conversation

  1. 1

    Open a conversation

    Your face joins the others in the top bar while you read, and you see theirs.

  2. 2

    Start a reply

    Others see that you are writing one, in the conversation and on its row in the list.

  3. 3

    Decide together

    Leave it to your colleague, which keeps what you typed as a draft, or keep writing. Each of you sees the same warning.

Good to know

Where

What it shows
Viewing, Writing a reply, or Away with the minutes.
History
Presence is live only. It is never written into the conversation’s history.
