Improvements In 'Outgoing Call Off-Hook' trigger

Post by akhileshg1988 » 30 Dec 2015 06:22

Hey there
Currently Automagic interprets all outgoing calls, from the moment they are made/dialed, as being 'Off-hook'. Is there any possibility to improve this and make Automagic interpret outgoing calls in three different states viz. 1. Dialled (this state represents the time from when the outgoing number has been dialled till it has been picked up/received on the other side) 2. Off-hook (this state represents the time from when the outgoing call has been picked up/received till disconnected) 3. Ended (the moment the outgoing call gets disconnected by either party).
Such an implementation would be immensely helpful.
Thanks
Akhilesh

Hi,

Unfortunately this particular feature is not available in the API of Android so it's nearly impossible to get this working properly on different devices.
Some apps used to check the call log and check the call duration to see if it's zero to detect when the other party did not accept the call yet, however this does not work on all devices. You could also try to use Control UI to see if the call duration label is bigger than zero.

Regards,
Martin
