Call notifications (web and native)
Residents can be notified about incoming portal calls through two parallel channels:
- Native app (recommended for mobile) — iOS VoIP (PushKit) and Android FCM data show the system incoming-call UI (CallKit / ConnectionService). See the mobile app guide.
- Web Push — browsers and PWAs subscribe with VAPID; use Enable call notifications on My apartments in the dashboard.
You can use either or both. If you install the native app, you typically do not need browser notifications on your phone.
