Mobile App: Customize Alerts and Ring Tones

Is there a way to change the ringtone that I hear in my bluetooth Blue Ant Q2 headset when receiving a call through the mobile app on my iPhone. The ringtone is Marimba and is not selected as a ringtone for any setting on my iPhone. I tried other bluetooth headsets with the same result.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Ring+tone. Change ringtone for android app... it would be extremely valuable to be able to change the ringtone on the android app. If you can do that and be able to change it based on queue or something even better.

A lot of times i dont get to see whos calling just hear the ring, because im in my car. Hearing the standard phone ring tone i end up answering with, "hello" rather than the company name, and it then becomes confusing.... "is this.....?" Im sure you can see the need for this. Ive read other posts which hit on this but i wanted it to be clear.

Thanks

Just so you know, people have asked them for this feature since 2012. I have been for over a year now. It won't happen. Ever. They just don't know how to do it. I'm sure it all comes down to it being forgotten during development and them not wanting to fork out the cash to have the programmers return and add that very useful feature. I actually scrapped the app. I just use the standard phone company features to forward my calls at work to my cell phone. If I receive a call from the office, I have it set to a different ringtone for that number. Works like a charm! It just bypasses their whole app altogether where I deleted it off my phone. My phone runs much better and my battery lasts a lot longer because of it. I wouldn't waste time trying to research this. I wish I had the countless hour back trying to make it work. I have an iPhone, but we both have the same issue. Best of luck.

Hello Stylee,  Sorry, we know that waiting for features to be implemented can be frustrating. I assure you this idea has not been forgotten. However this Community is just one of several sources where we collect information. We receive dozens of requests each week from this Community and several other sources.  Our Product Team reads and reviews all idea submissions on a regular basis.  Because of the large number of feature requests that we receive, there is a rather complicated prioritization process that each idea goes through. Unfortunately some ideas on on the table for a long time before they become implemented. The best way for users to be heard is to use the vote button on these community topics. 

Thanks
Mike

Stylee, that is a great work around but for me I need the RC app for outbound calls.  Since I work remotely and use my personal cell phone, I don't want my clients having my personal cell number.  I wish RC developers would just integrate this functionality, it seriously can't be that difficult.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Need volume setting on app for inbound ring. The inbound ring on the app has become very soft.  Making it louder BLASTS the ringtone for incoming cell calls. So either need to sync the volume or have a separate ring volume setting for app.

I agree it would be ideal to allow a different ringtone so a user can distinguish a business/personal call without even having to take the phone out of his/her pocket. I'd add that silence or vibrate should be options as well...some like to see the notification on the screen but don't want the audible ring (however don't want to fully silence their phone, either).

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Change RC App Notification Sounds for iOS app. When using the Ring Central app for Apple iOS and Android operating systems, we need to have the ability to change the notification sounds. We use the app to "page" the physicians for urgent hospital calls during the day and night and the notification sound is not near loud enough. It does not wake our physicians up during the night and is often not heard even during the day hours. We have tried setting up notifications through email and email apps however you cannot differentiate between non-work and work related emails or the apps also do not have the capability to change the notification sound.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled I request that the developers create a unique ring tone for new texts, phone call.... I request that the developers create a unique ring tone for new texts, phone calls received on the mobile app. we are now using the phone for business, and unlike when I get a call on my iphone, the RC mobile app doesn't notify me that I have a new text or call. Mayb just give the message a identifiable ring tone.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Ring Tone on my Android. Ringcentral Canada - Cell Phone App - I recently switched to an Android cell phone and now when my personal Cell Phone Rings, it has the same Ringtone as the Ringcentral App.  I can not change it on Ringcentral. If I change my personal phone ring tone, the App adopts the same ring tone - A total nightmare as I can not ascertain if I have a private or business call.  This has GOT to be placed in the line for development.
