⚠️ Android menu paths vary by manufacturer and OS version. If a path below doesn't match your phone, use the search bar at the top of the Settings app with the keyword given in each step. Paths follow Samsung (One UI), with Pixel noted where it differs.
Complete every step below, then run the verification at the end. Each step is required — Android silently drops paging alerts if any one is missed.
1. Allow app notifications (including the Paging Alerts category)
Settings search keyword: notifications
- Go to Settings → Apps → Vibe OnCall → Notifications.
- Turn On the main toggle at the top.
- Under notification categories, make sure All Vibe OnCall notifications is also On.
Even if notifications show "Allowed", a blocked Paging Alerts category silently drops every page — check both levels.


2. Stop Android from auto-revoking permissions
Settings search keyword: unused
- Go to Settings → Apps → Vibe OnCall.
- Turn Off "Remove permissions if app is unused" (Pixel: "Pause app activity if unused").
If you don't open the app for a few weeks, Android otherwise revokes its notification permission with no warning — pages just stop arriving.

3. Exempt the app from battery restrictions
Settings search keywords: battery optimization, sleeping apps, background app management
- Go to Settings → Apps → Vibe OnCall → Battery and select Unrestricted.
- Samsung only: Settings → Device care → Battery → Background usage limits — make sure Vibe OnCall is not in "Sleeping apps" or "Deep sleeping apps", and add it to "Never sleeping apps".
- ASUS / ROG only: go to Settings → Apps → Vibe OnCall → App battery usage, then:
- Allow background usage: keep it On, tap in and select Unrestricted (not "Optimized").
- Background app management: turn this Off for Vibe OnCall — leaving it on lets the system suspend the app in the background to save power.
