ZQuickSilverZ Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Why is there no software that allows you to take calls on your PC while gaming? For instance when my wife calls (and she tends to have perfect timing to call at the most inopportune times) I have to stop what I am doing..... go hunt my cell phone down (because it is NEVER by me).... and hope I get it before it goes to VM. Why can't I just get the call on my headset while gaming and have a non intrusive window pop up with 3 things.... who is calling, accept, decline. Bonus if it has white list features so I don't have telemarketers calling me during gaming sessions (blacklists are about useless these days). I need, I need, I need... What about my wants?

hansangb Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 I thought google voice had the option of ringing all your lines including the PC you're on.

mvsgas Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 Why is there no software that allows you to take calls on your PC while gaming? There are headphone that allow you to use blue tooth to connect you phone to them. Example the Kave xtd To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..
webweaver40 Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 I have cell phone on a stand in front of me. Call comes in, I turn down headphones and turn on phone speaker. You can download this somewhere, I think it's called the practicality mod. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

You can link your mobile to google voice w/o changing how your use your cell.I have google voice however, that is not designed to allow someone to accept calls while running gaming software. Also the site tends to need frequent reloading, otherwise the Google Voice web page just stops working. I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original.

ZQuickSilverZ Posted May 20, 2019 Author Posted May 20, 2019 There are headphone that allow you to use blue tooth to connect you phone to them. Example the Kave xtdYes but I would like to see who is calling and have the ability to accept/reject calls. Again bonus if it has white list features so I only have people calling me that I actually WANT to talk to. I work nights and had an issue with telemarketers waking me up. I have home phone service as part of my internet package so I bought a home phone and a white list call blocker. Now I NEVER get woke up but I can still allow certain people to reach me (people who know I work nights so would not call me for frivolous reasons). Given I don't like to be interrupted by nonsense calls during gaming (especially something I can't pause like an online flight) a white list call blocker function would be greatly appreciated. To me that is the golden chalice. Software I can easily use while gaming equipped with caller ID that allows white list call blocking features. I can't be the only one that would value this product..... there has to be a market for it. I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original.

Mars Exulte Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Technically, if you used Skype or similar I believe that's exactly what would happen ;) They're calling your phone not your PC, but there are many options for inserting your PC into the equation ) Де вороги, знайдуться козаки їх перемогти. 5800x3d * 3090 * 64gb * Reverb G2
