# Buttons

**Buttons are one of the most intuitive elements for chatbot users.**

Buttons are a powerful tool for guiding users and simplifying their interaction with the bot. Instead of typing a response, a user can simply click a button to be directed to a specific block. For flexibility, the system will also recognize and process the button's text if the user types it manually.

**Supported Messengers**\
This feature is available on the following platforms:

* Telegram
* Viber
* Facebook Messenger
* Instagram

**Types of Buttons**

These messengers support two main button formats:

1. **Reply Buttons (Keyboard):** Appear below the message input field, replacing the standard keyboard. They are ideal for presenting clear, multiple-choice options.
2. **Inline Buttons:** Embedded directly within the message text. They are best for actions like opening a website or navigating within the current context.
