Depending on your business, texting can be a much more efficient way to chat with customers compared to phone calls. But because they’re so easy and low-commitment, text conversations can go on all. day. long.

That's why today, we're releasing Scheduled Messages.

📆 How to schedule a message in OpenPhone

After composing your text message, click the new clock icon to launch the scheduling window. You'll find it next to the send arrow.

Next, decide when your message should be delivered: “tomorrow at 9 am pacific time,” “two weeks from tomorrow,” or even “6 pm next wednesday.” You can also cancel delivery if they message you first.

A clock icon will appear next to a conversation once a message has been scheduled for that contact. Your team can view, cancel, and even edit one anothers’ scheduled messages.

Scheduled messages are available now

Update or refresh OpenPhone for Web, Mac, and Windows to reveal the new scheduling options. This feature will be available on iPhone and iPad in the coming weeks, and Android later this year.

🪝 Integrate directly with anything using Webhooks

While we build more integrations, we thought we’d give you the option to build your own.

If you’re a developer (or a bit tech-savvy), webhooks can help you send realtime triggers from OpenPhone to any other service that’s built to receive them. That receiving service can then be customized to take any action based on whatever OpenPhone sends over.

Give our webhooks documentation a read and start building.

Fix

The team's been hard at work on improving OpenPhone's HubSpot integration. Today, we're sharing two significant improvements:

• Fixed an issue where the integration would fail due to a large volume of HubSpot contacts.

• Fixed an issue where newly created contacts would not be imported after disabling and re-enabling the HubSpot integration. This was leading to contact syncing and activity logging issues.

If you're experiencing either of these issues, we recommend disconnecting and reconnecting your HubSpot integration from within OpenPhone. As always, more to come soon!

New

In the past, whenever someone on your team would create a new contact, OpenPhone would default to keeping that contact private. But we've heard from workspace owners that they'd like the opposite: to make new contacts shared by default.

So today, we're giving you that option:

• Workspace owners and admins can now set sharing defaults for new contacts added to their workspace. New contacts can be shared with the entire workspace, select phone numbers, or even specific individuals.

• Defaults will apply to contacts created in OpenPhone or synced from Google or CSV imports. Contacts synced from your phone's address book will remain private by default (though you can always share those manually using the "bulk share" option in the contacts section).

• We've also made usability improvements to both individual and bulk contact sharing.
