FAQ

How do I set up WhatsApp?

Go to Platforms tab, enable WhatsApp, enter your phone number with country code (no + sign). Example: 905551234567 for Turkey, 15551234567 for USA.

Can I use only specific platforms?

Yes! Each platform has its own enable/disable toggle. Enable only the ones you want.

What happens with multiple platforms?

When 2 or more platforms are enabled, a single main floating button appears. Clicking it reveals all platform buttons with a smooth fan animation. No clutter on your site.

Can I hide a platform on mobile only?

Yes! Each platform has “Hide on Mobile” and “Hide on Desktop” checkboxes. Mix and match as needed.

How do business hours work?

Enable Business Hours in the Availability tab. Set working days and hours. Outside those hours, the WhatsApp popup shows your offline message instead.

Does it slow down my website?
