B1 - In which languages is the app available?
The app is available in:
- English
- Dutch
- Finnish
- French
- Portugese
In case you believe a language is missing, please contact us.
B2 - Can I use Genesys Cloud desktop and Mobile Office simultaneously?
Yes, you can perfectly be logged in to Genesys Cloud Destkop and Mobile Office at the same time.
How does it work?
If you are logged in onto both devices, the status will remain in sync. If you change your status on Mobile Office, it will automatically change on Genesys Cloud desktop.
When receiving an interaction, the interaction will be offered on both devices. For example, an incoming voice call will ring on both devices. The device where you decide to pick up the call, will contain the audio stream. It is not possible to switch between devices during an interaction.
Issues?
In case you would have issues using both devices at the same time, please:
- check that auto-answer is turned off
- check that "placing calls with other app' is turned off
- check that persistent connection is turned off
If one of these options are turned on, it could provide issues in the simultaneous use of both devices resulting in the issue where the audio stream is always assigned to the desktop device.

C1 - The app says there are no phones available?
By default, we will use the 'default station' which is assigned to your user. The app supports both 'remote phone' and 'Genesys WebRTC' stations, but not other types (hardphones/..). By searching, you can select a station which was defined inside the Genesys layer.
C2 - When using the remote phone setup, why are my are getting to my operator voicemail instead of Genesys?
When a call reaches the cellphone, and is routed via Genesys Cloud, we identify the following use classes
- Reject with native IOS/Android dialog
In this case, on PSTN level you're redirecting the call to the voicemail. The app doesn't come into play in this scenario - and from Genesys Cloud perspective, it looks like someone answered the call. Unfortunately, for this use case there is no solution: the app cannot intervene here (unless you would use scenario 2, where you click on the reject button in the app), unless you would manage to change your phone settings in terms of what happens when you click that 'refuse' button. (Based upon our investigations, we did not manage to find an option allowing us to change the behaviour - we could only change voicemail delays for scenario 3) - Reject using the reject button in the mobile app
This is actually the only case of the 3 scenarios where the app comes into play - for the 2 others, there is no communication with the app, only between Genesys Cloud, your PSTN provider, and your mobile phone. When this button is clicked, via the Genesys Cloud platform API, a reject is issued. This allows routing on Genesys Cloud side to react (send to voicemail, or route to another target) - No response within x seconds from the user
Here it depends on the voicemail settings in Genesys Cloud vs your mobile phone. In Genesys Cloud, on the level of your person object (see below), there's the option Timeout seconds.
admin > people > phone
For the scenario in which the user does not respond in time, you should ensure that the value on Genesys Cloud is configured to a lower value then on your cellphone (for example: if your cellphone's settings state to redirect after 30 seconds to your PSTN provider's voicemail, the value on Genesys Cloud should be set lower then 30 seconds).
C3 - How to avoid becoming "Not ready" when I miss a call?
The administrator can configure the option in the admin portal.
By default, when a RONA occurs you will be put in a 'not-responding' state for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, we will put you back in your last known state (available or on queue).
C4 - What are your shipping policies?
The administrator can configure the option auto_off_queue=true in the section gmo_voice on the admin portal (value in seconds). If you accept a voice interaction (note: only ones monitored by PureCloud), you will be put in the BUSY state, thereby avoiding getting other calls. Once the voice stream is released, you will revert to your previous state (OnQueue or other).
C5 - Why can't I see al my ACD queues?
For performance reasons, the list of ACD queues is filtered. By configuring the section gmo_queues_filter on the admin portal, you can apply your own explicit filter.
More information can be found in our admin guide.
C6 - WebRTC is not working, how can I debug?
For WebRTC, the app connects directly to the Genesys Cloud WebRTC gateway. See this article for the ranges of IP addresses used by the Genesys platform: https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/cidr-ip-address-range-for-cloud-media-services/
To debug the WebRTC connection, a tool is offered by Genesys on the below URL (attention - specific URL per region) https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/run-the-standalone-genesys-cloud-webrtc-diagnostics-app/
C7 - When I click "click-to-call" or "click-to-sms" in the Salesforce mobile app, a browser opens instead of Mobile Office
If you are using a Samsung device (or a Android device which also has this issue), please make sure to disable "open app links in browser" in your settings.
C8 - Why is SMS not working?
If SMS is not working, please make sure that the 'create sms' functionality is active for users with the following permission: sms:phoneNumber:view
C9 - Why can't I see my "available" status?
For Genesys Cloud 1-3 users, we hide the available status by default. To enable it in our admin console, follow the steps in our admin guide.
