Mapping a hardware button to a specific contact or channel

Zello now supports mapping a specific user or channel to accessories and device buttons on Android.

When configured the selected hardware button will always call the same predefined channel or user. To call on a different channel the user will need to use a screen button. For more flexible configuration use the Default contact feature.

To map a contact:

1. Go to the Zello menu>Options>Push-to-talk buttons

3. Press the hardware button on your Bluetooth accessory, wired headset, or Android device button (for example the volume keys).

That's it! You can test your button.

Note: Standard device buttons (such as the volume keys) only respond when the app is running in the foreground.
