Ringover's SMS synchronisation allows you to instantly find all your messages on your mobile phone, computer or web browser. However, slight synchronisation delays or messages displaying inconsistently can sometimes disrupt your work. In this simple guide, you'll learn how to resolve these minor bugs in just a few minutes to get your messaging perfectly synced again.
Carry out basic checks
To start, let's rule out the simplest causes. Often, a simple restart or a quick update is enough to get everything back in order.
- Log out and log back in to your Ringover account.
- Completely close and reopen the Ringover app.
- Check the quality and stability of your internet connection.
- Make sure you are logged into the exact same account across all your devices.
- Check that your device meets Ringover's minimum system requirements.
2. Troubleshoot the app for your platform
If basic checks aren't enough, apply the method suitable for the device you are currently using.
On the mobile app
This quick method allows you to completely reset the connection on your mobile phone.
- Completely uninstall the Ringover app from your mobile device.
- Reinstall the latest version from your app store (Google Play Store or App Store).
- Log back into your account to restart synchronisation.
- Restart your mobile device.
- Check if your messages display correctly on your screen again.
On the desktop app
If you are using the app installed on your computer (Windows or Mac), follow these steps:
- Clear the Ringover app cache.
- Uninstall the app from your computer.
- Download the latest version available from the official releases page on GitHub.
- Reinstall the app and log in.
On a web browser
If you prefer using the web version of Ringover, here is how to refresh the connection:
- Reload your browser page (use the shortcut Ctrl + R).
- Use a recommended browser for better compatibility, such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
3. Apply advanced troubleshooting techniques
If synchronisation still fails, let's move on to slightly more specific settings for your account and network.
- Clear the app's cache and cookies directly in your mobile phone's settings.
- Check that your mobile device's network connection is not blocked by a firewall or a VPN.
- Check your SMS messaging settings on your Ringover portal.
- Ensure that your contacts' phone numbers are saved in the correct international format (for example, +33 for France).
