The messaging module in VCore connects office users with workers via the Vworker mobile app. Each time a new message is sent, the worker receives a push notification on their phone. Messaging works the same way for both client and worker contexts.
The messaging module is shared across client and worker contexts. For client-related messaging, see Client messaging.
