Updated on 1 min read

WYP.chat installs like an app, without going through an app store. Once installed, it opens full screen and alerts you to every new message, even when your phone is locked.

Steps

  1. On iPhone: open WYP.chat in Safari, at the same address as on your computer, and sign in. Tap the Share button, then “Add to Home Screen”. Then open WYP.chat from the new icon.
On iPhone, the “Install WYP.chat on your iPhone” banner in the inbox, then the Notifications section of the settings
  1. On Android: open WYP.chat in Chrome, tap the ⋮ menu, then “Install app” (or “Add to Home screen”).
  2. In the installed app, tap More, then Settings: in the My account tab, Notifications section, and tap Turn on notifications on this device. Accept the phone’s request.
  3. Choose what makes your phone ring in Notify me about: All new messages, My conversations and unassigned ones, or Nothing.
  4. Under By email, keep Reminder of unread important notifications: an assignment, a mention, an exceeded response time or a channel alert left unread for 5 minutes also reaches you by email. Choose Never to receive nothing.
The Notifications section: the button to turn them on, the choice of messages and the email reminder
  1. Turn notifications on again on each device: phone, tablet, computer. The number of devices receiving notifications is shown below the section.
