Manual
Opal Connect oers an experience nearly idencal to users on browsers. The main dierence is that Opal Connect does not oer a
mic level meter. Opal Connect does not operate in “background mode” on mobile phones or tablets. If the app is running and sent to
background (via “home” buon or other means) the current call will disconnect. But since Opal Connect maintains and oers the last
Invite when brought back up, it’s a simple and quick reconnect process.
For subsequent calls, guests can simply launch the Opal Connect app directly on their phones, without using the browser at all. The last
Invite used will be oered as the connect opon.
Calling Opal on your iPhone with Safari
Using Safari to call Opal is possible, but with some restricons:
• You must be running iOS11 or higher. (If you a running an earlier version, you will only be able to use the Opal
app to make the call.)
• You cannot use your phone’s earpiece. You will have to
use speakerphone (not recommended) or a wired headset
(recommended).
