Would be awesome to have a live group chat widget that would allow users on the site to interact with one-another. (ie. not a 1-to-1 support chat widget, more like an old AIM chat 🙂 This would be very helpful for webinars to ad a chat widget next to the video window to increase user engagement. - Social login - Post as Guest - Basic moderation tools - Upload media (pictures) - Embed media (Youtube, Giphy, Soundcloud, etc.) ---

Hi @Greg_Teddy and welcome to the Community 👋 I deeply apologize for all the confusion caused by this situation! I am sorry to say, but the Group Chat app isn’t released yet. Currently, we are gathering feedback to create an app that aligns with your needs: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/elfsight/original/3X/4/6/46c2ae0e575486a868792f2e1c72ec102568c1ac.jpeg) It would be really helpful if you could share your vision on this app as well. What features would you like to see in the app? Do you have any preferences for the appearance and design of the Group Chat widget? Any additional info would be highly appreciated 🙂 ---

Hi there @Nicole_Thompson 👋 Unfortunately, it’s really hard to give the ETA for this app at the moment. I am really sorry! The thing is that we prioritize requests based on the complexity of implementation. Also, a high number of votes does increase the chances for a sooner release. According to these criteria, there are requests with higher priority at the moment. Once we receive any news about the Group Chat from our dev team, I’ll immediately update you in this thread 🙂 A huge thank you for sharing your feedback and welcome to the Community!
