How feedback moves
through Intercom

One widget, not two

Ybug lives inside the chat your customers already use

Your customers already know the Intercom bubble in the corner. Bolting on a second feedback widget just gives them two floating buttons to ignore. With this integration, Ybug shows up as an action inside Intercom Messenger itself — same bubble, plus “Send feedback” when chat alone isn’t enough.

  • Inside Intercom Messenger — not a second floating button
  • Available on Messenger Home and inside any conversation
  • Nothing new for customers to install or learn

When chat needs a screenshot, open Ybug

Add the Ybug Feedback button to Intercom Messenger Home, or insert it into a conversation when words stop being enough. Customers, clients, or website visitors can mark the page, add a note, and send visual feedback or a detailed bug report without leaving the flow.

  • Launch Ybug from Messenger Home or a specific conversation
  • Customers annotate the page with arrows, boxes, comments, or free draw
  • Ybug uses the Messenger locale where possible
Conversation context kept

The report comes back to the same conversation

Ybug stores the Intercom context with the report. If the customer started from a conversation, Ybug adds an internal note there. If they started from Messenger Home and Intercom provides contact context, Ybug can create a new conversation first.

  • Ybug replies to Intercom as an admin note, not a public customer message
  • Home-screen feedback can create a new conversation when contact context exists
  • The note links back to the full Ybug report

Support-friendly triage

Keep support in Intercom, send detail to Ybug

Choose whether reports are added to Intercom automatically or forwarded manually after review. You can also close reports after forwarding, so your Ybug dashboard stays tidy while Intercom keeps the customer thread.

  • Auto-add reports to Intercom, or forward selected reports manually
  • Close reports after forwarding when that fits your workflow
  • Useful for support teams who need developer-grade context

The note can carry the clues developers ask for

Ybug formats the report as HTML for Intercom. Include the user’s feedback, screenshot, page URL, browser environment, OS, screen size, viewport, JavaScript errors, console output summary, custom fields, attachments, video link, and a link back to Ybug.

  • Annotated screenshot and feedback in the Intercom note
  • Browser, OS, URL, viewport, and screen details when enabled
  • Console summary and full report link for deeper debugging

Why teams use
Ybug with Intercom

Intercom is great for managing and responding to user feedback. Ybug adds the picture, page, browser, and console context that product managers, developers, and support agents need to resolve issues quickly.

Support stays in the thread

Ybug adds the report back to Intercom as an internal note, so agents do not lose the customer conversation.

Less back-and-forth

Annotated screenshots and technical details answer the usual “which browser?” and “what page?” questions upfront.

Console clues for devs

When JavaScript errors are part of the story, include a console summary and link back to the full Ybug report.

Manual or automatic handoff

Forward every Intercom-sourced report automatically, or review reports in Ybug before adding them to the conversation.

Frequently asked questions

Does Ybug create Intercom tickets?

No. The Intercom integration adds the Ybug report to an Intercom conversation as an internal admin note. It keeps support in the conversation while giving the team the screenshot and technical context.

Can customers start feedback from Intercom Messenger Home?

Yes. Add the Ybug Feedback button to Messenger Home, or insert it into a conversation. Home-screen feedback can create a new Intercom conversation when Intercom provides contact context.

What does Ybug include in the Intercom note?

The note can include the reporter’s feedback, annotated screenshot, URL, browser and OS details, screen size, viewport, custom fields, attachments, screen recording link, console summary, and a link back to the Ybug report.

Is the Intercom note visible to the customer?

No. Ybug posts the report as an internal admin note, so your support team can use it without sending the raw debugging details back to the customer.

Can I review reports before adding them to Intercom?

Yes. You can add reports to Intercom automatically, or keep auto-forwarding off and forward selected reports from Ybug manually.

Will my customers see a second floating button on the website?

No. With this integration, the Ybug Feedback action lives inside Intercom Messenger itself — customers tap the same Intercom bubble they already use. You can place it on Messenger Home, inside conversations, or both.

Can our users submit feedback without logging in?

Yes. Users can submit visual feedback and bug reports directly from your app in a few clicks – no signup or login required. Less friction means more useful feedback.
