Help, I’m getting echoes on my calls

If you or the person you’re calling hears an echo, switching call audio to JoyTV’s built-in speaker can help. You’ll still see the call on your TV, but the sound will come from JoyTV.

Switch to JoyTV’s built-in speaker

  1. Open the ONSCREEN app on your phone.

  2. Go to the Caregiver tab and open Settings.

  3. Find the Audio/Video section and select Audio Output.

  4. Choose Internal Speakers (can help with echo).

Make a test call to check the sound.

Still hearing an echo?

Echo can happen when a microphone picks up call audio playing through a nearby speaker. Try these steps:

  • Lower the speaker volume at both ends of the call.

  • If another phone, tablet, or computer in the same room is connected to the call, disconnect its audio or use headphones.

  • Ask the person using a phone or computer to try headphones.

If the echo continues, contact ONSCREEN support and let us know who hears the echo and whether you’ve switched to Internal Speakers.
