3.5 Handling Incoming Calls

X-Lite must be running to answer incoming calls. (If X-Lite is not running, incoming calls may be directed to
voicemail; check with your VoIP service provider.)

As soon as an incoming call is received, a call panel appears, showing information about the call.

In addition, the Call Alert box appears, even if X-Lite is minimized.
