Changing the widget position

The instructions below are for desktops and laptops only.

You can change the position of the tawk.to chat widget to match your website’s layout and branding. By default, the widget appears in the lower right corner. However, you can move it to other areas of the screen, including:

  • Top left

  • Top right

  • Center left

  • Center right

  • Bottom left


Here’s how:


1. Log in to your tawk.to account.

2. Select the correct property.

3. Click Administration on the top menu.

4. Select Chat Widget under Channels in the left menu. Then, click Advanced under Widget Appearance.

5. In the Widget Appearance page, you can change the Desktop and Mobile Widget Position.

6. Click Save in the bottom-right corner. Your chat widget updates automatically.

Additional considerations

  • Mobile responsiveness
    On mobile devices, the widget may adjust automatically to ensure it doesn’t overlap or interfere with mobile navigation or buttons.


  • Widget visibility
    If you're using custom CSS or other scripts on your site, make sure they don’t conflict with the widget’s position settings.
