@delta The Delta app is better than Signal in my opinion, but when I made a direct call to my friend, there was no vibration or notification, just a heads-up.

@Minimac @delta both sides need to have opted into the the "Debug calls" toggle I think, and then the other side should get a notification that there is a call incoming.

@feld @delta I appreciate the information.

@Minimac @delta it's still not quite the same as a call from native phone app or e.g., Signal IIRC... I believe one reason is that it would force Delta to expose call history to the native phone/dialer app and there is no way to redact it from DeltaChat's side. So you can't like delete call logs from a chat with confidence as they're recorded additionally in the phone's own call history...

@feld @delta So, what's getting recorded? Just curious, I'm learning.
