aggregate_sessions

If TRUE, concurrent messages of the same author are aggregated into one session. Default is TRUE.

plot

Type of plot to be returned, options are "box" and "heatmap".

type

If "replytime", plots display how much time it takes authors to reply to previous message, if "reactiontime", plots display how much time it takes for authors to get responded to.

exclude_sm

If TRUE, excludes the 'WhatsApp' system messages from the data. Default is FALSE.

Value

Plots for Replytimes or Reactiontimes of authors. Input will be ordered by TimeOrder column.
