@artech YEah... Not user-friendly... That would typically be the case if it doesn't work
@joseph_1979 Yes.. I just assumed this is a bug, as a friend of mine has also bene testing, and he is getting the "call alert" whilst his phone is locked.... so... not sure..
@joseph_1979 I don't particularly care what method they pick to implement. For me, the basic notification was the issue. They seem to have at least implemented something on that front. What I tested was NOT a notification. it was a fullscreen call notice (like a call) with a ringtone that repeats until answered, as can be seen in my screenshot. AFAIK, this is new? Your comment on SIP/VOIP would of course be better, but I'd rather not wait another year.....
I downloaded the latest firmware from the website:Reolink_video_doorbell_wifi_v30032152401262240_IPC_DB.zipFirmware installed fine. no issues. seems normal features are still working.I can change the following settings in the App:Unfortunately, if I leave the setting screen, and come back the setting has been disabled again.With some further testing I could get the long-awaited call style notification to work, and it looks like this:Now for the bad news. It only works if I am IN the setting screen... and only once. If I toggle the setting OFF and back ON again I can get the notification again.If I leave the setting screen or close the app, it does not work.In summary. Progress, but It's not working yet.. At least there is finally some proof of life with this.
