Android 3cx client - hide unregistered extensions?

[jonpennell]

Good morning,

How (if it is possible) can I hide unregistered extensions in the Android client like I can in the iPhone client?

Thanks in advance, J

Hello @jonpennell

Please note that this option is not available in the Android client. You can post this as a feature request on https://www.3cx.com/community/forums/3cx-ideas/ . All posts are reviewed by their corresponding Departments and, if feasible and voted for by other users as well, may be implemented in an upcoming service pack or update.

Thanks Yiannish - I must admit, I'm surprised at some of the differences between the Android and iPhone clients. The UC client experience is one of the strongest selling points of 3cx.

Out of interest, do you have any idea what order the Android client displays the presence list in?

I'm surprised at some of the differences between the Android and iPhone clients.

Our first priority is stability and functionality, and here Android trails iOS because, well, to put it simple, we don't have an iPhone and an Android - no, we have one iPhone surrounded by one hundred of "iPhone killers", each "doing the same things at a fraction of the price" and "coming with a bunch of new and exciting features not included in the standard Android OS"

Sorry Vali - that sounded like a criticism...

We've had an Asterisk installation for years and are looking to migrate to 3cx - the main reason for doing so is the fantastic integration between the clients and the PBX. Having chat/IM and calls in the same client is a big + for us, together with the zero config to get most of it working.

I've purchased a couple of Android handsets to test the client out as I have an iPhone myself. To be honest, I'll be encouraging the company to switch to iPhones as devices are replaced as the iPhone client is somehow "sexier"

Keep up the good work... there are a few missed opportunities that I wish 3cx had engineered differently but the compromise between ideal and perfect is impossible to hit for everyone.
