Goodbye 2022, welcome 2023 with Chative.IO version 1.0 BETA 🤩🎇
This is such a big jump from v0.6 to v1.0 as we think we are nearly there. We have a new UI UX design, a new website, a new TEAM plan, new pricing, a new subscription, and a new free trial system. All our existing free users can now enjoy a 30-day trial that is completely free!
So, let’s see what we’ve rolled out!
🚀 What’s new?
✨ New onboarding experience
The UI & UX across the platform have been enhanced dramatically to pave the way for more explosive changes happening later on. And onboarding is the first thing that our awesome front-end master waved their magic wand at. Users can now effortlessly set up Omni-channel live chat right during this section.

🫣 New preview experience
See how it went in the past, we only limited it to a few languages. For now, you can not only preview 108 languages at the same time but also decide how your live chat looks and feels on all your channels.

🎉 Improvements
- New themes across the app – new colors for inputs, buttons, backgrounds, and texts that make you stay inspired at work.
- Better readability – the fonts that we pick for our app are now standard, and we also take typography more seriously. Because this app is designed for you to use every day and for long hours, we want you to take pleasure while reading information.

- Improve UX and more friendly error messages when connecting to external 3rd parties software like Messenger, Instagram, and Zalo.

- Users can now manage and update their payment methods within the app in the payment section.
