Apple and Google both strictly control access to their mobile platforms, especially for apps that integrate deeply with calling, contacts, and system-level services. MySIPcity requires several permissions to function properly on your Android device, including camera, microphone, contacts, phone, and notifications. These permissions enable calling, messaging, voicemail, and push notifications to work reliably.

Allow Notifications
Both Android and iPhone automatically place apps into a low-power state to preserve battery life. Push notifications are essential — they wake your phone so you can receive incoming calls and messages, even when the app is in the background or the device is idle.
You will see a prompt: “If you want to receive calls… you must have Push Notifications enabled.” Tap Open Settings, then:
