First I'd like to thanks you for this plugin. This plugin is not openning the CallKit UI when sendCall function is fired. When I try receiveCall function the CallKit UI opens, but when I accept call, for example, it goes to background mode in IOS, but with sendCall do not call this UI.

There is any way to call the CallKit UI screen not in background mode?

You don't get call-kit UI when making a call, only when receiving. The only thing you get visually is when you send your app to background you can see a green banner on top of the screen, and if you press it , it sends you back to your app.

@NickMendes, ok, I have seen this, but is there a way to open CallKit UI when sendCall like whatsapp? Because Whatsapp app, when you “sendCall” function, it opens the Callkit UI and no only the call status bar at top.

That interface you see is not call-kit UI, that interface is made by whatsapp to look like call-kit.

Hi, first of all, i´d also like to thank you guys, for this plugin and the support you provide to the community.

i join this topic because I´m having the same issue @deccosantos mentions:

in Android, the SendCall UI shows up for a moment (less than a second), then it goes to background. A green bar is shown on the top of the screen, and if you click on it the "Android Callkit" UI is shown.
in iOS, apparently nothing happens when sendCall function is called, but if i press the power button after calling the function (tested on iPad 6th gen and iPhone 6s), then the callkit UI shows up. Pressing again turns off the device.

@NickMendes , why do you say you don´t get the callkit interface when making a call? according to the info provided here (readme.md-> "send a phone call paragraph") it looks like it should. Am i wrong?

Thanks in advanced guys for your comments

It must be your implementation bc this plugin works for me.

This is very misleading. If you can't show callkit UI on send call then the documentation should be changed to reflect that. Right now docs reflect that sendcall UI is shown on ios. Furthermore, I am not only unable to get sendCall to work, i.e. it doesn't show callkit ui but it also doesn't show callkit ui on connectCall. People will spend and waste time on something that doesn't work. Either kindly let us know what is going on or update the docs so that they don't give wrong impression.

My implementation is:

cordova.plugins.CordovaCall.sendCall('Daniel Marcus');

//simulate your friend answering the call 5 seconds after you call
setTimeout(function(){
  cordova.plugins.CordovaCall.connectCall();
}, 5000);

Anyway, after some research it seems that this is expected behavior for Apple CallKit I have same issue when testing with native code (i.e. without cordova). It would be nice if docs would give some sort of mention.

@bpowell15 I appreciate your response, and yes the plugin works but not like the docs reflect (at least for me) I am not criticizing its just there are two open issues and above there is a comment above that is contrary to what docs reflect:

You don't get call-kit UI when making a call, only when receiving. The only thing you get visually is when you send your app to background you can see a green banner on top of the screen, and if you press it , it sends you back to your app.

so I am clearly not the only one experiencing it, alas it's not the plugins fault....

Might spare some people a little time and frustration with some mention of this behavior but I understand.

I submitted PR #81 that has some enhancement but doesn't seem to resolve the behavior

I can't reallt believe that the ios call kit has no interface when you sendCall. It should use the phone interface, as in Android, because there is an interface in phone. I still think that this is a bug, I will try some code in xcode to check. By the moment I created a custom interface to act when I sendCall, not the best option, but is what I have at now

bpowell15 commented 4 years ago

I get the interface but it’s not in the foreground if you switch apps you’ll see that call ui as one of the choices.
