Wi-Fi: Calls are placed and received using VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) if you are connected to the internet via Wi-Fi.

Data: When enabled, Fuze Mobile automatically switches to cellular data for VoIP calls when Wi-Fi is not available. If this setting is disabled, and Call With Fuze Using is set to Wi-Fi, VoIP calls can only be made when your device is connected to WiFi.

Cellular: Calls are only placed and delivered via your Fuze number using carrier minutes. Cellular calls do not get access to video, screen share, and other features.

Prompt to switch to cellular: Enable this setting to have Fuze Mobile prompt you to switch to cellular minutes if Wi-Fi or the cellular data connection is not optimal.

Mobile number: Fuze Mobile will use the number specified to place and receive calls using cellular minutes.

Voicemail Over Data

If Wi-Fi is not available, tap Voicemail over data to enable Fuze to use your cellular data to listen to voicemails.

Data rates may apply if you enable this feature.

Default Fuze Number

Tap Default Fuze number to view the phone numbers associated with your Fuze account.

Default Fuze number is available only if your Fuze account is associated with multiple phone lines.

Receive Pickup Group Calls

If you are a member of a pickup group, you will be able to see, accept, and ignore incoming calls that are directed to any member of your pickup group.

Pickup Groups need to be configured by your IT administrator in the Fuze Portal by navigating to UC Configs > Pickup Groups. Once your extension has been added to a pickup group, you can see and answer calls for a member of that group.

By default, visual notifications for pickup groups are disabled in Fuze Mobile. You can enable this feature by toggling the option for Receive pickup group calls.
