Additional Information:

If you have issues with your mobile phone ringing for inbound calls when the mobile is locked, that is a mobile-specific issue, not an 8x8 issue. Please check the settings on your device.

If your mobile device vibrates when you receive a call on your 8×8 Work for Mobile, and you want to turn it off,  check your mobile device's phone settings, as vibration is not a setting within 8x8 Work.
