  1. The latest update for the RingCentral desktop app changed the way people send SMS messages - it opens a new small window for every new SMS message to a new contact. I'd like there to be a way to toggle between the new layout and the old, as many agents in my company reported disliking the new feature as it slows down their productivity.

  2. This week (around March 4th, 2025), the desktop version of RC changed so I can no longer see the SMS history when sending a new text message. I want to be able to type in a number or contact name and see the history of the text thread instead of a blank window with nothing of the previous messages. Please switch it back!

  6. We propose the addition of a "Missed Calls" tracking feature within the RingCentral app. This feature would enable users to view and manage missed calls not only from their direct line but also from call queues and other users within their organization. Here are the key components of this feature:Unified Missed Call Log: Users would have a centralized "Missed Calls" section within the RingCentral app that consolidates missed calls from all sources, including their direct line, call queues they are a part of, and calls for other users they have permission to access.Clear Call Queue Missed Calls: For users who…

  7. I am being inconvieanced by the new text messsage dialog not just opening up the thread of messages between the contact but making you write the new message in a dialog instead. It would be helpful if we can see first the SMS thread before asking to compose and send a new message

  8. Received faxes only shows single number. This should be fixed and all recipients should be displayed on the "To" field of the fax coverpage.

  10. RingCentral App HUD apparently overwrites the setup we have programmed on the user presence via Admin Portal.

    Ideally, the new added extension on the HUD should be assigned to the next available key and not overwrite the previous configuration. We need to have an option on the RingCentral app to manually assign the users to the available keys.

  11. We are using another provider to be able to share our main number sms inbox, I learned that an update will be coming soon that will allow users to share an inbox, that is great!.

    But, we also need to be able to send a mass texts to our contacts, to announce office closure, holiday greetings or other business related announcements.

    This feature will get RC close to being a one stop option for Voice/Text service.

  14. Currently, call queue groups are displayed in the contact list when users attempt to send an SMS and browse their contacts. We want to prevent these groups from being visible to users while sending SMS or browsing contacts for SMS, but still maintain their availability in the company phone directory. We would like to add an option in the app that allows GLIP administrators to toggle the visibility of call queue groups in the SMS contact list, while ensuring they remain visible in the company phone directory.

  16. When transferring calls, Caller ID information is only passed on blind transfers. It would be helpful if the caller ID information was passed to the new recipient regardless of transfer type.

    Hello everyone, this has been implemented in 22.3.1. This version of the app was rolled out to all accounts over 8/25-8/31. No additional action is required to initiate the feature on the app, please confirm you are on at least 22.3.1.

    This feature allows for caller ID to transfer in these scenarios.

    Warm/Consultative Transfer:

    - Incoming call from PSTN/RC # to RingCentral and transferred to RC number

    Blind Transfer:

    - Incoming call from PSTN/RC # to RingCentral and transferred to RC number

    - Incoming call from PSTN/RC # to RingCentral and transferred to RC voicemail

    The feature requires the following endpoints to work successfully. This applies to both the user invoking the transfer as well as the user who is the destination of the transfer.

    Desk phones: Any Poly, Avaya or Unify models.

    RingCentral App: Version 21.4.30 or later

    RingCentral Mobile App: Version 22.1.10 or later

    RingCentral Phone App: Version…

  17. Implement a feature within call queue settings that allows administrators to configure an overflow routing option to an external phone number after the queue has handled a defined number of calls within a given time.

    Problem:
    There's a need for a mechanism to proactively divert excess call volume to external support resources (e.g., third-party help desks, on-call specialists) based on the actual number of calls handled.

    Proposed Solution:
    1. Enhance call queue settings with a new overflow routing option: "Overflow by Call Count."

    1. Allow administrators to specify:
      a. A "call count threshold": The number of calls that must be answered…

  19. It would be nice to have an app that would help somehow help provision/program IP Phones (like our 12 new VOiP Desk phones here at our office) that aren't supported by RC's Auto-provisioning feature.

  20. Need Help Blocking Calls

    It's very difficult to find the page to block calls. Even after the agent pointed me to the support link where I could find instructions, I had to keep going back and forth between the instructions and the main site just to block another number this morning. Customers should be able to get to the page for blocking numbers with just one click.

    Additionally, please update the website to make it easier to block calls. It's not obvious how to do so. When I search your website, I come up with far too many hits that…
