No handset/speaker option toggle for audio calls in Snikket iOS

Open repunset274 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Describe your feature proposal Upon entering an audio call, Snikket outputs sound to the iPhone speaker. There is no toggle to switch between headset and speakerphone. Adding this toggle would improve conversation privacy and allow the user to decide.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The client should default to the phone's headset (for user/conversation privacy and not to disturb people around them), but allow the option to switch to speakerphone if desired. This functionality is missing. Current options displayed to user are DTMF pad, hang up, and mute microphone.

Additional context The original SiskinIM client defaulted to headset, and allowed for toggling to speakerphone. Snikket issue reproduced on iOS 15.2

I think my issue is similar to this one. I have a friend on Snikket iOS who today described not being able turn the speaker on. They were driving in the car and didn't want to hold the phone to their head and wanted to increase the volume, in most apps this would be called speaker on, they didn't have an option for that. Would be really nice to see that.
