Overview
Just like with Kayako on the browser, once you have reviewed a conversation and understand the customer's issue, your next step is to draft and send a reply. Using the Kayako mobile app for iOS, you can reply to any conversations you have access to and also update a support conversation in your inbox.
Diagnosis
The support team will probably spend the majority of their time with Kayako replying to customer conversations. Kayako created an app for both Android and iOS so you can stay in touch with your clients and your team, wherever you are. Kayako apps are free and available for both iOS and Android devices.
The Kayako mobile app for iOS allows you to reply to or update conversations while you are away from your computer.
NOTE: This platform does not support the use of macros as well as adding conversations, users, or organizations. Only Kayako for Android does.
