Tango Tango Settings Page
Key functions found on Tango Tango's settings page:
- Do Not Disturb - This toggle turns mutes all traffic from the Tango Tango app. Note this is also available by tapping the speaker button in the bottom right corner of the Channels screen. To hear traffic from the app again, you will have to turn off Do Not Disturb (DND) mode from either Settings or the home screen.
Profile
- Here you can edit your name, Designator, and (if allowed by your organization) phone or email address.
Call Settings
- Volume & Microphone Boost - These settings can increase the audio coming out of your speaker and increase your own speaking volume coming through to others. These are already set at recommended settings, we do not advise changing them unless you are having issues. Volume Boost, in particular, can cause distortion and poor audio quality if turned up too high.
- Call Audio Routing - By default, audio routes to 'Speakerphone' to make your phone emulate a two-way radio in function. You can turn 'Use Bluetooth' to cause your push-to-talk call audio to route to Bluetooth headphones if you'd like more discrete communication.
- Call Progress Tones - Here you can select when you'd like a tone to be played. You can add a tone at call start or call end if you'd like or tweak other times that tones are played.
- Call Notifications
- Vibrate on Incoming Call - Your phone will now vibrate when you receive a call in addition to playing the call
- Notify on Call Progress - Your phone will display a notification on your lock screen when a call starts or ends
Location Services
- Location Services must be 'on' to send any location updates about your location to your team
Note: if Location Services are off entirely, the map on the PTT Call Screen will not work properly
- Share Location - Will display your location to the rest of your team on their Map
- Only Share During PTT Call - Your location will only be shared when you PTT through Tango Tango
- Frequency - Our location services dynamically adjust related to the speed you are traveling. If you are stationary, updates will be sent infrequently to conserve battery and bandwidth. If you are traveling quickly, in car for example, updates will be sent more frequently so that other users have the most up-to-date information on your location. The default setting here covers most use cases. However, if you'd like to make the updates show up a little more often or a little less, tweak this slider.
PTT Button
- Here you can pair Bluetooth devices, like buttons or speaker microphones, to use with Tango Tango.
- On iOS, you will see an option to enable iOS PTT Support. This is required by Apple to use Bluetooth devices with Tango Tango. Turning this on will also put a push-to-talk widget on your lock screen allowing you to see the Channel currently speaking and PTT right from your lock screen.
- If iOS PTT Support is enabled, you will see a blue dot or "pill" in the top left of your iOS device. This is a requirement and design decision by Apple to show that you have an audio or location-related app enabled.
Preferences
- Switch between Light, Dark, or System-controlled (switches between light or dark based on your smartphone OS setting) app themes.
