How to use the Call Alert function

Call Alert is a very useful feature to get a hold of someone quickly for emergencies and urgent matters. Call Alerts are a standard feature in the Zello Free app.

The Call Alert feature is identified as a bell located on the right side of the talk screen. It is also available on the History/Conversation screen of iOS devices. If you do not see this icon, the feature might be disabled. Contact your network Admin to see if it can be enabled.
