Overview
Macros let you automate common conversation replies and updates, and you can use them when responding to customers from the Android app.
Diagnosis
Macros can save your team a ton of time by automating common replies or notes or even making common updates to conversation fields — all of which saves you valuable clicks. Macros can also help keep your tone consistent across replies from multiple members of your support team.
