Intro to Rock Chat

Rock Mobile Chat opens the door to an exciting new communication experience for attendees and staff powered by Rock Mobile. Communicate in real-time with your whole organization or chat with a smaller team, or any group you're a part of, all in Rock.

Requirements for Rock Mobile Chat
To use Rock Mobile Chat you must have a Rock Mobile app and sign-up for the Rock Mobile Chat add-on.  

Note

Chat Web-Version
Rock Chat can also be used on your web-instance, and although it is ready for use, we recommend you limit its use to Administrators and Staff until it reaches feature parity with our mobile chat.

Warning

Data Privacy in Chat
While Rock Chat is secure and designed for everyday use, no chat system is immune from data incidents such as breaches or unauthorized access. For this reason, you should avoid sharing sensitive information (for example, financial data, health records or passwords) in chat messages. Any sensitive data sent is at your own risk and liability for such data remains with the sender.


Rock chat has extensive features such as:

  • Real-time messaging with typing indicators and read receipts
  • Support for threads, reactions, and media attachments
  • Direct messages and group chats tied to Rock group data
  • Push notifications

Although we use Getstream for chat, you will not need to interact with it to use chat. As you configure your chat groups through Rock, the information is passed immediately to Getstream through our API. Just get to messaging and let us handle the hard work.
