Following these steps will help prevent issues with ringing, notifications, and call quality. ## General Best Practices for iPhone Users ### Keep the Application Updated Users should always keep the SNAPmobile application updated to the latest version available in the Apple App Store. Application updates may include important fixes for: - Call ringing - Push notifications - Audio quality - Bluetooth behavior - Login stability - Messaging - Compatibility with newer mobile operating systems ### Keep the Mobile Operating System Updated Users should also keep their iPhone operating system updated. **Recommended:** - iPhone: Use a supported version of iOS. Older operating systems may create issues with notifications, background calling, Bluetooth audio, and app stability. ### Allow All Required Permissions SNAPmobile should be allowed to access: - Microphone - Contacts, if contact integration is required - Notifications - Bluetooth, if using Bluetooth audio devices - Cellular data - Background activity, where available Without these permissions, the app may not ring, may not access audio, or may not work correctly in the background. ## Recommended iPhone Settings ### Notifications Go to: - Settings - → Notifications - → SNAPmobile **Recommended settings:** - Allow Notifications: ON - Lock Screen: ON - Notification Center: ON - Banners: ON - Banner Style: Persistent, if available - Sounds: ON - Badges: ON - Time Sensitive Notifications: ON, if available This helps ensure that incoming calls and messages are visible when the phone is locked or when the app is running in the background. ### Focus Mode / Do Not Disturb iPhone Focus modes can block incoming call notifications. Go to: - Settings - → Focus **Review:** - Do Not Disturb - Sleep - Work - Driving - Personal **Recommended:** - Allow SNAPmobile notifications in any active Focus mode. - Make sure Focus is not automatically silencing business calls. - Review scheduled Focus modes that may activate during business hours. If a user reports that calls do not ring at certain times of the day, Focus mode should be checked first. ### Microphone Permission Go to: - Settings - → Privacy & Security - → Microphone - → SNAPmobile **Recommended:** - Microphone access: ON Without microphone access, users may be able to place or answer calls, but the other party may not hear them. ### Cellular Data Go to: - Settings - → Cellular - → SNAPmobile **Recommended:** - Cellular Data: ON This allows SNAPmobile to work when the user is not connected to Wi-Fi. ### Background App Refresh Go to: - Settings - → General - → Background App Refresh **Recommended:** - Background App Refresh: ON - SNAPmobile: ON, if listed This helps the application stay available when running in the background. ### Low Power Mode Low Power Mode may reduce background activity and affect app behavior. Go to: - Settings - → Battery - → Low Power Mode **Recommended:** - Low Power Mode: OFF during business hours, when reliable mobile calling is required. ### Bluetooth Devices For users using Bluetooth headsets, earbuds, or vehicle audio systems: **Recommended:** - Pair the Bluetooth device directly with the phone. - Test call audio before relying on it for business calls. - Keep Bluetooth devices charged. - Avoid switching between multiple Bluetooth devices during a call. - If audio routes incorrectly, disconnect and reconnect the Bluetooth device. For best reliability, a quality business-grade headset is recommended. ## Final Checklist: Critical iPhone Settings - Notifications allowed (Lock Screen, Notification Center, Banners, Sounds, Badges, Time Sensitive Notifications) - Focus mode allows SNAPmobile notifications - Microphone access is ON - Cellular data is ON - Background App Refresh is ON - Low Power Mode is OFF during business hours - App and iOS are updated to the latest versions - SNAPmobile is running in the background (not force-closed)
