I am using a cell phone now as a home phone. I need this app to flash the screen and/or camera flash to notify me of missed voicemail or messages when I walk in the door (without having to go fiddle with the phone every time). No such luck. I'm not concerned about battery drain as the phone will be connected to the charger all the time.

For the most part, the app is pretty good. I do, however, have two big complaints. If I receive a voicemail message when the phone is turned off, the app does notify me of anything when I turn the phone back on. It only works when the phone is on. It also fails to give an alert when the phone is in Airplane mode. I recently came back to the US from a trip abroad. Arriving in the airport, I turned on my phone and it didn't show that I had any vm messages. By chance, a day later, I needed to call my vm and found out that, in fact, there were several messages. I tried the app with the phone on...and with the phone off. Again, it only worked with the phone on. It would be nice if it functioned when I booted up the phone and when it is put in Airplane mode (I just tested it twice) So, in short, it only functions when the phone is on.

It works well, but I wish it had more alert tones to choose from, or better yet, I could select my own MP3 as a tone. Most of the ones you have are too short for me to notice - only the Jetsons is long enough, but it is a bit too long (bothersome to others).

About this app

Call Alert will chime every few minutes if you miss a phone call, voice mail message or SMS message. If you are out of range of a cell tower or off-line, Call Alert will start chiming as soon as you get back in range and the voice mail notification arrives.

Call Alert also can determine when you are in a car and can speak your SMS messages out loud as they arrive. Great for keeping your eyes on the road. You must have paired your phone's Bluetooth with the car to utilize this feature.

You can control the volume level and frequency of the alerts. You can also select the alert sound and vibration.

To set up Call Alert, you will be prompted to allow Call Alert to view notifications. This lets the app detect when a new voice mail or SMS message arrives. Next you will be asked to identify the phone app, voicemail app and messaging app used on your phone. Follow the instructions shown on how to do this.

As with all apps from Newbury Graphics, Call Alert is free and contains no ads and does not require access to the internet.

Call Alert asks for the Read Contacts permission so it can show the caller's name for missed SMS notifications. This is optional. It also uses the Read Phone State permission to determine when calls arrive and are not picked up. This is optional if you only want to get alerts for SMS messages. If you want to use an external ringtone for the missed call alert, you will be asked to allow reading external storage.

New features

This release deals with Android's new privacy rules. Because of these rules, Call Alert can no longer get the phone numbers of missed calls. However, the app still supports the main function of alerting you for missed calls, voicemails, and SMS messages. You can now select an external ringtone for your missed call alert.
