# Messages

> Chat with clients, create groups and send broadcasts.

Go to **Messages**. Each client you coach has a chat with you once they join.

## Send messages

Write a message, or send a photo, video or voice note. Use **Search names and messages** to find a conversation.

From a message's menu you can forward it, see **Message info** or delete it. You can delete a message for everyone or just for you.

## Create a group

**1. Start a group**

Click **New group** and enter a **Group name**.

**2. Add members**

Add coaches and clients. Clients appear once they've joined.

**3. Choose who can write**

Turn on **Only coaches can send messages** if clients should read but not write.

**4. Create**

Click **Create group**.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Everyone in a group sees each other's names and messages.

From **Group info**, you can rename the group, **Add people**, remove members, **Leave group** or **Delete group**.

## Send a broadcast

Click **Broadcast** to send one message to several clients. Each client gets it in their own chat with you, and nobody sees who else got it.

## Messages from TrainBlock

Some messages arrive in a client's chat automatically, such as **Workout done** when they finish a session, and replies you send from a check-in review.
