Open an app beside Chat (on a computer)

Keep a conversation open in the middle and an app in the panel on the right.

On a computer, the panel on the right of the screen can hold any of your apps, so a conversation and an app stay open at the same time. Read an invoice while you answer the customer, or keep your tasks open while you talk with Miles.

The panel is the size of a phone, and an app in it works exactly as it does in the Bizer app on your phone.

Open an app in the panel

1. Click the 9 dots at the right of the header. Your

apps open in the panel, right below them.

1. Click an app. It opens in the panel.

The middle of the screen keeps whatever you had open there, and the chat list on the left still opens conversations in the middle. Click the 9 dots again, or the X at the top of your apps, to put them away and see the panel as it was.

Links you click inside the panel stay in the panel, the way they would on your phone. An app that opens another website opens in a new tab.

Links in a conversation open beside it

When Miles, a teammate or an approval card links to an app (Get Work Done, an invoice, your schedule), clicking it opens the app in the panel, and the conversation stays in the middle. If you'd folded the panel away, it opens. A link to another conversation opens in the middle, where conversations are read. To open an app in the middle instead, hold Cmd (or Ctrl) as you click.

Follow Miles

When Miles uses an app while he answers you (adds a task, checks your schedule, builds an app), the panel opens that app so you can watch the work. If he uses several, it settles on the last one. This works in group chats too, and each person sees the app on their own screen with their own access.

• Turn it off or on with Follow Miles at the top of the panel. It's

remembered on this computer.

• If you've folded the panel away, Miles won't open it: it just changes what's

inside, ready for when you open it.

• Every answer that used an app also has a small Open … beside button under

it, so you can bring the app up whenever you like, even with Follow off. On a phone it's an Open … button that opens the app.

The panel's buttons

| Button | What it does | | --- | --- | | Follow Miles | Turns following on or off: apps Miles uses open here. | | Open in the middle (the arrow) | Moves the app into the middle of the screen. | | X | Closes the app. If you see your VALO Score, the panel goes back to it. |

The small tab on the panel's edge folds it away and brings it back. Bizer remembers what was in the panel on this computer.

> The panel needs a wide window. On a narrower screen it hides, and the app is > still in the apps menu, behind the 9 dots in the header.
