Mandatory Messages for Specific Members in Zoho Cliq Channels

Mandatory Messages for Specific Members in Zoho Cliq Channels

Hello Zoho Cliq Team,

We hope you're doing well.

We would like to request a feature enhancement to Zoho Cliq that would allow marking certain messages in a channel as mandatory for specific members — with built-in tracking and reminders.


🎯 Use Case:

In important operational or compliance-related discussions, not every channel message needs to be seen by all members — but some must be acknowledged by specific individuals.

We need a structured way to target specific members and ensure they’ve read a message.


✅ Requested Feature:

We would like a new message option in Zoho Cliq channels:

  1. Mark as Mandatory for Selected Users

    • While sending or after sending a message, allow the sender to select specific users for whom the message is mandatory.

  2. Read Confirmation Tracking

    • Show which of the selected members have read and acknowledged the message.

  3. Automated Reminders

    • Send automatic reminders (e.g., private messages or notifications) to those who haven’t confirmed reading the message after a configurable time interval.

  4. Admin/Owner Access

    • Allow channel admins to monitor and manage mandatory message status and confirmations.


This feature would significantly improve accountability and ensure critical communications are not overlooked.

Thank you for considering this request, and we’d appreciate any updates on whether this can be added to Zoho Cliq’s future roadmap.

Best regards,
Ram

          • No longer get Cliq notifications on phone if app not started

            On Android, I used to get notifications on my phone whether I was in the app, or it was started. Then about a month ago, I stopped seeing notifications on my phone UNLESS I had already started the app. So if I reboot my phone, and never start the app,
