Can I customize Shopify Inbox's chat box and icon?

Topic summary

Main topic: whether Shopify Inbox’s chat box can be customized (CSS, icon, font) within Shopify themes.

Initial guidance: One response claims it’s possible via theme edits (adding custom CSS in theme assets, modifying header.liquid for the icon, and setting fonts via CSS). CSS = styling rules; SVG = vector icon format; jQuery = JavaScript library for DOM changes.

Practical issues: Users on Prestige and Dawn report they can’t find the chat icon/SVG in theme code. A jQuery workaround that swaps the icon after a delay was shared, but the original logo/size reappear on each page click, making it unsustainable.

Latest update: The original poster contacted Shopify support; they said they may add a feature to adjust icon size and logo if enough users request it. The OP encourages submitting requests to Shopify to prioritize this feature.

Actions/requests: Several users asked for step-by-step guidance; one offered help via their site link.

Status: No robust, theme-level solution confirmed. Discussion remains open; a native customization feature is contingent on user demand.
