So what are the improvements?

Here is the full list of the issues we found and the fixes our software engineers have been working on to improve the Android application.

Audio

Previously customers encountered issues concerning the audio on calls. The audio would be prone to drop when a SIM call came in while on a CircleLoop call. This has now been worked on and the issue is no longer present.

Incoming calls

While using the CircleLoop application on Android devices CircleLoop customers have reported that calls would come in to the main SIM thus cancelling or ringing over the ongoing CircleLoop call.

Furthermore, the CircleLoop application would not wake up for an incoming call if the application was running in the background (which effectively meant the application would only receive calls if it was set to run in ‘Permanent’ connection mode). 

All these issues have now been resolved.

Transfers

When transferring calls on the CircleLoop application some Android devices would not ring for the receiver of the transferred call. The receiving device will now ring when receiving an incoming call transfer.

Outbound calls

CircleLoop users reported that when they ended a call on the CircleLoop application it would prevent other applications from playing audio. This issue has been fixed so the audio gets released back to the operating system allowing other application to play audio immediately. 

User interface

An issue was reported with the ‘Check your battery/data settings’ prompt which kept showing on the device even when the setting was changed. The team have now added a don’t show this popup again tick box.

The appearance of the user interface has been improved by rewriting the personalisation screen, cleaning up the user interface, wording and fixing some links that were faulty. This has improved the look and feel of the application.
