    This is the MOST ANNOYING popup on any site I use. How can I make it go away except on demand?

    Hi Christopher_Tasik,

    Thanks for reaching out to us for help. Currently, there's no direct way within Jotform to disable this pop-up for specific users or to make it appear only on demand. You can simply click the X icon on the top right side of the AI Podo chatbot to close it.

    Why are u inflicting this pain on users? We did not ASK for Podo nor do we WANT an constant annoying bot creature every time we log in. Of all of your terrible ideas, this may yet be the WORST. PLEASE create a way to disable this thing and make it on demand only. This is a paid account not a freebie and we should not be forced to have this nonsense shoved down our throat every time we log on.

    Hi Christopher,

    We appreciate your honest regarding this update. At the moment, there isn’t an option to permanently disable the AI Podo Agent or set it to appear only on demand. The only way to dismiss it for now is by clicking the X icon on the top right corner of the chatbot. But rest assured that your input is very valuable and helps us prioritize improvements that better serve our users.

    While the feature to disable the AI Podo Agent isn't available at Jotform right now, we've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers. Exactly when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.

    So, based on past experience I should expect this to happen on the 12th of never. We pay to sue this service, let us control the experience.
