This article is written for: ✅ Zello Work  ❌ Zello Friends & Family.

Statuses allow you to customize how and when you receive messages on Zello. Optional statuses include AvailableBusy, Offline (Standby) and Solo.

Status Meanings

When your status is Available, all incoming messages play in real-time. Available contacts will have a green dot icon on their profile photo.

Offline (Standby)

When you set your status to Offline, others will see you in Standby. When a contact is in Standby, they'll be notified of any messages received while away when they log back in.

Contacts in Standby will have a green unfilled circle icon on their profile photo.

Solo

If you'd like to listen or talk to a single contact/channel while muting conversations from others, set your status to Solo. You can replay any missed conversations from History at a later time.
