The Blujay Chrome extension puts Blujay next to your CRM. It adds text and call buttons beside phone numbers in Follow Up Boss, and opens your full Blujay inbox in Chrome’s side panel, so you don’t have to switch tabs.

Install the extension

1

Add it to Chrome

In the Blujay web app at app.blujay.io, click the phone icon (Get the apps) in the left sidebar, then click Add to Chrome. On the Chrome Web Store page, click Add to Chrome.
2

Pin it to your toolbar

Click the puzzle-piece icon in Chrome’s toolbar, then click the pin next to Blujay. This keeps the Blujay icon one click away.
3

Open the side panel and sign in

Click the Blujay icon to open Blujay in the side panel, then sign in with your Blujay email and password.
4

Turn on notifications

Click Enable notifications in the side panel, then click Allow when Chrome asks. See Notifications to choose what you’re notified about.

Text a contact from Follow Up Boss

Open a person in Follow Up Boss. Next to each phone number you’ll see two small blue buttons.
1

Click Text with Blujay

Click the speech-bubble button (Text with Blujay) next to the phone number.
2

Write your message

Blujay opens in the side panel. If you’ve texted this number before, your existing conversation opens. If not, a new message to that number opens.
If you’ve texted this contact from more than one Blujay number, you’ll see Choose a conversation. Pick the one you want to continue.

Call a contact from Follow Up Boss

1

Click Call with Blujay

Click the phone button (Call with Blujay) next to the phone number.
2

Choose your number and call

Choose which Blujay number to call from, then click Call.

Allow your microphone

The first time you call, Blujay asks for microphone access. Click Allow microphone, then Allow when Chrome asks. Your call starts in Chrome.

Use Blujay in the side panel

Click the Blujay icon in Chrome’s toolbar any time to open your Blujay inbox next to the page you’re on. Everything you can do in the web app works there, including reading and replying to conversations.

Common problems

Chrome is blocking your microphone for Blujay. Click Try again and choose Allow, or turn on microphone access for Blujay in Chrome’s site settings.
The Blujay number you chose can’t place a call right now. Try again in a moment, or choose a different number.
