Understanding Doze Mode and Zendesk Chat Notifications

Find out how Android's Doze feature affects Zendesk Chat notifications and how to manage it.

What is the Doze feature on Android, and how does it affect Zendesk Chat?

The Doze feature on Android helps improve battery life by limiting app activity when the device is idle.

For Zendesk Chat users, this means notifications might be missed unless the app is whitelisted. To ensure you receive all notifications, go to your device's Settings, tap Battery, then More (⋮), and select Battery optimization. Choose All apps, find Zendesk Chat, and select Don't optimize. This keeps the app active even during Doze mode. For more information, check out the originalZendesk help article.
