Incoming calls with Bria in the background

When Bria is in the background, Bria displays a notification for the incoming call. To change the notification style you receive, go to iOS Settings > Notifications > Bria.

If you choose Banner Style as Temporary, Bria displays the notification at the top of the screen and it goes away automatically.
If you choose Banner Style as Persistent, Bria displays the notification at the top of the screen and it does not go away until you tap on the notification and handle the call.

You can set a preference on what happens when you tap the alert for an incoming call.

Tapping the alert lets you choose to decline or answer the incoming call (turn off Alert Answer ), or
Tapping the alert immediately answers the incoming call (turn on Alert Answer).

Alert Answer can be found under Settings > Preferences.
