Can the bot icon sleep?

The bot’s eyes keep moving, and it's distracting in a way that I haven't habituated to. I get that you want it to stand out from the other icons (though I'm not sure why), but can it at least be faded/sleeping by default, until I tap on it?

    Interesting. I have not heard this from anyone else. Maybe we can add an option to turn off his movement?

      On my kids’ Recess website the menu looks entirely different, and they don't have this bot (they have the “kids’ feedback bot” in the corner, and it fades and sleeps until moused over). So this issue would only be for parents, and I'm not sure how many of them would say anything (or maybe it's primarily an issue on mobile - I'm not sure how it looks on a computer). Still, I doubt that they would complain about an option (or a default) of a faded/sleeping bot, even if they don't care enough to ask for it.
