NEWT MOBILE - Contacts and Quick Dials

Managing Contacts in your NEWT MOBILE App

To access all the contacts, tab on the Contacts icon at the bottom of the screen. In the Contacts window, you will notice two tabs at the top of the screen. Address Book and Global Directory.

Contacts - Address Book

This tab contains contacts that you would have synced from your cell phone (if you chose to sync upon start up). If you did not sync upon set up and would like to do that now, navigate to your own cell phone settings. Click on the Apps settings and scroll to this NEWT Mobile application in the list, tap it, and select Full Access or Limited access, to sync contacts.

Contacts - Global Directory

This tab contains extensions within your PBX environment as well as contacts your administrator may have loaded to the PBX in the Global Directory listing. This listing is auto populated and can only be changed by the PBX administrator. Showing or hiding listings will affect all users within your PBX environment.

Quick Dials

Just like a “Favourites list”, add a contact in the Quick Dial  icon. A tap on a quick dial places the call instantly.

To add a contact in Quick Dials:

  1. Open the Quick dial icon.

  2. Tap EDIT.

  3. Tap the + icon. A blank quick dial form displays.

  4. Fill in the name and phone number fields.

  5. (Optional) Touch Camera  to take or assign an image to a quick dial contact.

  6. (Optional) Toggle Busy Lamp Field on to provide extension status information (On Call / Off Call) of other users in your NEWT Business Phone environment.

  7. Tap the Save button.

  8. Tap DONE.
