WhatsApp

Is iZap an official Meta partner?

Yes. iZap connects to WhatsApp as an official Meta technology provider, through the official WhatsApp API (WhatsApp Cloud API). Your number’s WhatsApp account always stays in your Meta business portfolio.

Do I really need Facebook? Can’t I just connect with a QR code?

You do. WhatsApp only releases business numbers through Meta, so the connection goes through a Facebook account with Meta Business access — there’s no way around it, and iZap never sees your password. The QR code does exist, but inside Meta’s flow: on one of the screens you scan it with WhatsApp Business on your phone, or use an access code, to import your contacts and chat history. See the connection guide.

Can I keep using WhatsApp on my phone?

Yes. Connect the number that’s on the WhatsApp Business app: Meta detects the app and shows a QR code, and you keep using the app on your phone as usual, alongside iZap. See the connection guide.

Do iZap’s messages show up in the phone app?

Yes. Messages sent through iZap — AI replies, broadcasts, and the dashboard chat — also appear in the WhatsApp Business app, and messages from the app appear in iZap. See Why wasn’t my message delivered?.

Does iZap work with WhatsApp groups?

No. iZap handles one-to-one conversations. The official WhatsApp platform doesn’t deliver messages from groups, Communities, or Channels to other companies.

Can I connect more than one number?

Yes. See Manage your WhatsApp numbers.

The AI assistant

Does the assistant understand voice messages?

Yes. Voice messages customers send are transcribed automatically so the assistant can understand them. Transcription covers up to 90 seconds of each voice message.

What about images and PDFs?

By default, the assistant doesn’t interpret images and PDFs sent by customers. If this matters for your business, contact support.

Can the assistant send photos?

Yes, up to 5 images per instruction. See Send images in replies.

Can the assistant book appointments in my calendar?

It can, with Google Calendar. In the dashboard, connect your calendar under Integrations → Google Calendar and turn on the Book appointment skill in the Trainer. Automatic booking must be enabled for your business: if the assistant doesn’t offer time slots, contact support.

When does a conversation end?

Each conversation is tied to the customer’s number. It ends as soon as an order is confirmed or cancelled — or, if that doesn’t happen, 24 hours after it started, even if the customer wrote recently. These rules are the same for everyone and can’t be changed.

I changed the instructions, but nothing changed. Why?

You probably still need to click Publish in the Trainer. See The assistant isn’t replying.

Can I use ChatGPT to answer my customers?

The iZap assistant already answers customers on its own. The ChatGPT and Claude connection is for you to look up and act on your business by chatting with the AI. See Use iZap in ChatGPT and Claude.

Account and plans

How much does it cost?

Plans and prices for your region are under Settings → Plans in the dashboard. Meta’s message fees are charged separately, by Meta itself. See Plans and billing.

Is there a desktop app?

There’s no Windows or Mac app. Use iZap in your browser, at dash.izap.ai and in the Trainer — both also work in your phone’s browser.

Does iZap see my Facebook password?

No. The connection login happens on Meta’s website, and iZap never sees your password.

How do I delete my account?

See Account, team, and workspace.
