Quick fixes for when you can't receive a call

Follow these steps if you're having trouble receiving inbound calls

Updated today

If you are experiencing issues receiving inbound calls while still being able to make outgoing calls, we recommend that you restart your device, then reactivate the InnoCaption app and finally reset your router if you are connected to a Wi-Fi network. If the issue still persists, please try turning off your Wi-Fi connection and switching to a cellular data network (LTE or 5G) as this often eliminates connectivity issues that may result from router settings, firewall protections or other internet settings.

To reactivate the InnoCaption app

  1. Close all open apps, including the InnoCaption app

  2. Restart your device by powering it OFF and ON

  3. Open the InnoCaption app

  4. Tap Settings

  5. Scroll down to the bottom

  6. Tap Run diagnostics

To refresh your router connection

  1. Unplug your router’s cord from the wall

  2. Plug the cord back in

  3. Wait 1-2 minutes until all the lights are back up
