Widget Rooms
Communication with your contacts is end-to- end encrypted and takes place in protected rooms which you create and name yourself. This widget displays all the rooms you have already created, as well as rooms you have created in the TrustCase app. However, these rooms are only displayed after Web login to the F24 Collaboration dashboards is completed (see “Web login” tab). Use the Search box (magnifying glass icon) to search for specific rooms.Click a room name to open the room and continue communication there.
