My loved one isn't receiving calls
Start by checking these three things in order:
- Phone number format: Open person edit and confirm the phone number is correct. Include the country code (for example,
+12025551234). A missing country code or extra characters can block calls. - Check-in times: Confirm check-in times are set for this person under Calls → Check-ins. If no times are set, or times do not match when they are available, calls will not go out. Cora will not call until you set a time.
- Plan status: Open Billing inside Settings (app.kinse.io/billing). Outbound phone check-ins need a paid plan. If you still see Choose a plan to start phone check-ins, choose Essentials or Everyday. Past due also stops scheduled calls until billing is resolved.
After you change a phone number or check-in times, allow time for the next scheduled call. Calls use their local time.
