| The inbox UI is frozen or not loading new content      | Refresh the browser tab or log out and back in; clear cache and disable browser extensions that may interfere.         |
| Outdated browser or unsupported device                 | Update to the latest version of Chrome or Edge and use desktop whenever possible for full inbox functionality.         |
| Network issues or VPN blocks                           | Test connectivity outside VPN; whitelist Talview platform domains or try a different network.                          |
| Notification Inbox undergoing maintenance or bug fixes | Refer to Talview release notes or status page for known issues or maintenance schedules and wait for platform updates. |

  ### **Additional Tips:**

  * Always check whether notifications are grouped; some system alerts may be consolidated, making individual replies impossible, refer to grouped alert counts before attempting a reply.
  * Use manual outreach (email, WhatsApp, phone) when system generated notifications do not support replies or forwards.
