Chat issues

Chat issues

I am having a couple problems with the zoho chat feature. When I use Chat from the App bar, not everyone is getting messages (these are to different accounts, Yahoo & Gmail). I did finally get the Users to show up correctly. However, when in an active chat with someone, I only get one sound notification. No other notifications, pop up or otherwise, come through to alert if another message was sent.
Also, the bottom Chat bar that shows Active chats while I am in email does not show any online contacts ever, or active chats, even when I am currently messaging someone. Can you help?

Thank you!

        Perform effective team communication in Zoho Chat with our new 'Reply' option.   Converse and stay focussed on the parent conversation, rather than getting entangled in the web of several, never-ending sub threads.   To reply to a certain message, all you need to do is hover to the left hand side of the message. Then, click on the three dots to open a pop up menu. Here, click on the Reply button and type the reply to the message in the compose box and press Enter.   Voila, that was pretty simple.

If a VoIP push notification is not reported to the CallKit within a designated time window, iOS will terminate the app. If enough VoIP push notifications are not

        • Card payment surcharge?

          Hi, I would like to offer my customers the ability to pay invoices by card (using the PayPal integration). However, PayPal charges me around 5% to receive a card payment, and I would like to pass on this cost to my customer by way of a card payment surcharge. Is there any way for Zoho Invoice to be set up to automatically add a defined "card processing fee", say 5% of the invoice total, if the customer elects to pay by card? I don't want to add this on to invoice manually, since most of my clients
