App Troubleshooting

Our team works around the clock to deliver you the best possible product, and we're always pushing out new features to improve your Dialpad experience.

While we hope it won't happen, there is a tiny chance you could encounter a bug. If you do, our Customer Care Team will walk you through any steps needed to get things back and running as soon as possible. They might ask for things like an error report or for you to clear your caches, both of which you can do right from the Dialpad app.

Let's dive into the details.
