The Chats module is used by app users to have private one-to-one or group conversations with other event attendees, by exchanging instant text messages.
App users can access it by tapping on Chat from the main menu or the navigation bar.
Note: The Chat module is installed by default on most SpotMe workspace templates. For SpotMe workspace templates that are used to create a webinar experience (such as Anywhere webinar+), the Chats module may not be included by default. If needed, you can install it from the Marketplace. Remember to add the Chats app menu item to the app menu so that app users can access the chat.
