Use the Apps on Multiple Devices

You have access to the same information across all devices you use the app on. For example, if you send a message from your mobile phone, when you come back to your office, you can continue the conversation in the app on your desktop computer. Same for contacts: you can contact the same people regardless of the device you use the app on. You can log in to the app on up to 10 devices at the same time.

Exit

We recommend keeping the app running in the background, so you continue to receive calls and messages. On a mobile device, the app uses your cellular data to run in background if it is not connected to Wi-Fi.

Choose Sign out if you want the app to completely stop running. You will not receive any calls, messages, or notifications on this device, and will be required to log in next time you open the app. To sign out, select your initials, then select Sign out.
