Sending instant messages

Availability of this feature depends on the Bria solution you subscribe to.

Available in: Teams.

Not available in: Solo.

You can send an instant message (IM) to a team member.

By default, the [Enter] key inserts a new line to the message you are writing. Tapping Send sends the message.

To change this behavior so that the [Enter] key sends the message, go to Settings > Preferences and turn off [Enter] As Newline. When [Enter] As Newline is off, you can enter a line break by going to Quick Responses (iPhone) or Quick Responses (iPad).
