What this page is for

Paginated inbound message history for WhatsApp only: which device received the message, sender name and number, message preview, and timestamp.

Use this page to review customer replies, spot patterns before tuning autoreply, or confirm that inbound traffic reaches the right Fonnte device.

For a threaded chat view (conversations with reply in one timeline), use Multics → Inbox.
