Configure How Contacts Display

Workcloud Communication PTT Pro for Android Configuration Guide

This parameter controls how

PTT Pro for Android

displays contact names. This affects the Contacts screen and any screen where the contact name is displayed. By default, the

Workcloud Communication PTT Pro Management Portal

, determines how contacts are displayed in the Client Settings for each user. This parameter provides additional options that enable you to display contact names with the initial letter of the first name, last name, or both. One exception is when a user initiates a PTT call using a voice command, the client displays the full name.

Requires PTT Pro 3.3.10293 or later.
