Hi, Ultan
Thank you for choosing tawk.to and for sharing your challenge here.
We highly recommend setting up the widget scheduler to cover your business operating hours in order to avoid incidents in the event that an agent forgets to log out..
The Scheduler's purpose is to make the chat widget go offline even if the agent is logged in.
Once the Scheduler is activated, you don't need to worry about forgetting to log out or manually setting your status to Offline.
Example:
Let's say you’ve scheduled your widget to appear online from 9 AM - 5 PM. If you log in before 9 AM, you can still monitor your visitors without receiving any chats. However, your chat widget will stay offline and the visitor will get the offline form.
The same thing happens when the clock hits 5 PM. Even if there are agents online, the chat widget is…

A temporary workaround I've executed multiple times because of the lack of this feature is just disabling the agent status, which can cause more issues then it solves, but it's better then a false-positive online.
Alternatively agents should go into away/offline automatically, especially when their computer is turned off!
