On devices running Android Oreo, UniTel Voice notifications are divided into channels. UniTel Voice has a default for each channel that determines whether your device displays peek notifications, makes sounds, vibrates, shows a badge on the launcher icon, or uses LED notifications. If you would like the behavior to be different from the defaults, go to Preferences – Incoming Calls and tap on Incoming Call Notification Settings. The Android notification channels for UniTel Voice opens.

Some devices running Android Oreo only support text tones and not ringtones in Android notification channels. When you install UniTel Voice, the default ringtone is set to a custom distinct ringtone. If you are using a device that does not support ringtones and you choose a text tone, you can only go back to the UniTel Voice distinct ringtone by reinstalling UniTel Voice.

For Xiaomi MIUI 10 devices, you may need to Enable Sound in the native Android OS settings.

There are four importance levels you can set for each channel.

Urgent: Notifications show a peek notification and make a sound

High: Notifications make a sound

Medium: Notifications do not make a sound

Low: Notifications give no audio or visual interruption

To change the default settings, go to device Settings > Apps & Notifications > App info > Bria > App notifications > General notifications.


The Alert Sound, Alert Vibration, Alert Text Tone, and Use LED Notifications settings have been removed from Settings > Preferences > Messaging and Settings > Preferences > Additional on all devices running Android Oreo and higher.
