What’s New Version 1.4.6
Bug Fixes
- Correct chat input position on iOS 12 and earlier
- Fix support for external VoIP launch urls, displaying the proper label
Description
iAlert Handset combines the best features of the walkie-talkies, cell phones and pagers that caretakers used to carry into a single, streamlined, easy-to-use mobile product. When a nurse call occurs, all responsible caretakers receive an audible page, even if their device is off and in their pocket. At a glance, caretakers can see what calls have not been taken, which calls they have taken and are responsible for, and which ones have been taken by someone else.
Note: We are working on chat input improvements reported by our users, thank you for your feedback!
