Use it in the early hours (roughly before noon) with friends, coworkers, or anyone you have a relaxed relationship with. It’s more informal than the standard “Bom dia”.

Tudo bem está manhã?
‘está’ with an accent is the verb ‘to be’; the correct demonstrative is ‘esta’ without accent.
Tudo bem, esta manhã?
A comma separates the two ideas, turning it into two sentences; keep it as a single question without a comma.
Tudo bem essa manhã?
‘essa’ means ‘that (near the listener)’, not ‘this’; use ‘esta’ for ‘this morning’.

Cultural Tip
In Brazil, the most common morning greeting is “Bom dia”. Adding “Tudo bem?” after it is very natural. Using “Tudo bem esta manhã?” is perfectly understood but sounds a bit more colloquial and is often heard among younger speakers. Remember not to add an accent to “esta”; writing “está” would change the meaning to “Is everything good this morning?”.
