Chat sync options
When you connect a new number, Clapvo asks how to handle existing WhatsApp chat history:- Connect without syncing old chats — go live instantly with an empty inbox.
- Sync all previous chats — import your full WhatsApp history into Clapvo.
- Sync new chats only — start with a clean inbox; no historical messages are imported.
- Keep old records, sync new only — your existing chat records are preserved and only new incoming chats are synced going forward.
Tips
- Each number runs on a dedicated server slot, so deliverability is isolated per connection.
- Plans charge per connection — check billing before adding many.
- If you are unsure about importing history, start without syncing — you can always reconnect and choose to sync later.
