On Telegram, CalBuddy can only message you after you've started the bot. If it's quiet, this is almost always why.
Starting the bot
- Open CalBuddy: @calbuddyai_bot.
- Tap Start (or send
/start). - Your coach greets you and begins setup.
If CalBuddy isn't replying
-
Confirm you tapped Start / sent
/start. Without it, the bot can't message you. - Check you opened the official bot — @calbuddyai_bot — not a copycat with a similar name.
- Check your internet and resend your message.
-
Did you block the bot? Open the chat, and if it shows as blocked, unblock it, then send
/startagain.
Still stuck after that? Contact support — use "Submit a request" on this help center or email support@calbuddy.app — and mention you're on Telegram.
