Migrate From Manychat to ChatDaddy (Messenger)
Why This Matters
Moving from Another App to ChatDaddy
If you're switching from another messaging app to ChatDaddy for your Facebook Page, you need to tell Facebook to send your messages to ChatDaddy instead of the old app. This is done by changing the "Primary Receiver." Without this step, you might not get any messages in ChatDaddy!
What is a "Primary Receiver"?
Think of it like a mailbox. Facebook needs to know which app should get your messages. The "Primary Receiver" is the app that Facebook sends messages to.
