Getting Started

How does WIGGWIGG work?

WIGGWIGG gives you a separate identity for each part of your life: business, dating, online selling, or hobbies. Each identity is one bundle: its own number, its own vault (encrypted password manager), its own contacts. Track which services you've signed up for with each identity, so you'll never wonder "which number did I use for that?" We use zero-knowledge encryption, so we can't see your passwords or identity details.

Is WIGGWIGG like Google Voice for Canada?

Similar concept, but built for Canadians. Google Voice isn't available in Canada, so WIGGWIGG provides Canadian phone numbers you can call and text from. We also include a zero-knowledge encrypted password manager with every identity, something Google Voice doesn't offer.

How is WIGGWIGG different from other second number apps?

WIGGWIGG combines phone numbers with identity management and password storage in one place. If you've used apps like Hushed, Fongo, TextNow, or SlyNumber for second numbers, or 1Password and Bitwarden for passwords, WIGGWIGG brings both together. Each identity gets its own phone number and its own password manager, completely separate from your other identities.

Do I need to be in Canada to use this?

WIGGWIGG provides Canadian phone numbers, so a Canadian address is required at signup. Once you have an account, identity management and the vault work from anywhere with an internet connection. The mobile app makes and receives calls over data or Wi-Fi, and call forwarding to your verified number works wherever you have cellular service. Expanding internationally is on the roadmap, join the waitlist to be notified when we launch in your country.

Is there a mobile app?

The native iOS and Android apps are in Friends & Family beta today, with broad access arriving with summer 2026 Early Access. The web dashboard works today on any device with a browser, including phones, for calls, SMS, identities, and your password vault.

Digital Identities

What is a digital identity?

Each identity is one bundle: its own number, its own vault (encrypted password manager), its own contacts. Those parts stay isolated per identity, so nothing leaks between the different parts of your life. That's what WIGGWIGG is: a privacy-first digital identity platform.

How many digital identities can I create?

You start with 2 free identities. See our pricing page for details on purchasing additional identities.

Can I track which services I signed up for with each identity?

Yes! This is one of our core features. You can save and organize websites/services by identity, so you'll never wonder "which phone number did I use for that service?" again.

Do I need phone numbers to use WIGGWIGG?

No. You can use WIGGWIGG just for identity management and password storage without any phone numbers. The 2 free identities include password managers with zero-knowledge encryption, free forever. Add phone numbers when you need them.

What information can I store in each identity?

Store names, addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, email addresses, passwords, security questions, notes, bookmarks, and service links. All encrypted with zero-knowledge encryption.

Can I share an identity with someone else?

Currently, identities are personal and cannot be shared. Each identity is tied to a single account for security reasons. However, we're exploring secure vault entry sharing (individual passwords) for future releases. If sharing credentials with family or team members is important to you, we'd love to hear from you to help prioritize this feature.

How do I import passwords from another password manager?

Yes! Password import is supported. Pick your source: 1Password, Bitwarden (CSV or JSON), LastPass, KeePass, Keeper, True Key, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or generic CSV. Duplicate detection runs automatically so you don't end up with two copies of the same login. Direct support for Dashlane is on the roadmap, but Dashlane's CSV export works through generic CSV in the meantime.

Can I use WIGGWIGG as my main password manager?

Yes! We offer zero-knowledge password storage with multi-device sync. Use your vault from the WIGGWIGG iOS/Android app or the web dashboard. The auto-fill browser extension arrives after Early Access, before public launch.

Can I move a phone number between identities?

Yes. Numbers can be reassigned between your identities. The identity's vault (encrypted password manager) and contacts stay put: only the number moves.

Do I need to use the vault to use a phone number?

No. Every identity includes its vault (encrypted password manager), but using it is optional. Your number works exactly the same whether the vault is empty or full.

Phone Numbers & Area Codes

Do WIGGWIGG phone numbers require internet?

It depends on how you set it up. If you forward calls to your existing phone number, incoming calls and texts work over your cellular network with no internet needed. If you receive calls directly in the app, you need WiFi or cellular data. Sending outgoing calls and texts always requires internet (through the app or web dashboard).

What types of phone numbers do you provide?

We provide local Canadian phone numbers. Toll-free numbers will be available later. All numbers support calling and texting within Canada.

Can I choose my area code?

Yes! You can select from any Canadian province: Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, Northwest Territories, Yukon, and Nunavut.

Can people tell WIGGWIGG numbers apart from regular phone numbers?

WIGGWIGG phone numbers are Canadian phone numbers that work exactly like any other number. They show up as regular phone numbers on caller ID. No one can tell the difference.

Can I call 911 from my WIGGWIGG number?

Yes! E911 is included free with every WIGGWIGG phone number. As required by the CRTC, 911 calls are never blocked. E911 uses the address you register in your account to route emergency calls. Important: For critical emergencies, we strongly recommend keeping your primary number active and using it for 911, as it provides real-time GPS location to emergency responders.

Making Calls & Sending SMS

Can I make outbound calls from my WIGGWIGG number?

Yes! Use the WIGGWIGG iOS/Android app or the web dashboard to make outbound calls from any of your WIGGWIGG numbers. Recipients see your WIGGWIGG number on caller ID.

Do I need internet to send SMS?

For sending: Yes. Use the WIGGWIGG iOS/Android app or the web dashboard (both require internet). For receiving: If you choose forwarding, incoming SMS reach your existing phone like regular texts, no internet needed. If you receive in the WIGGWIGG app instead, you need WiFi or cellular data.

Can I use my WIGGWIGG number for WhatsApp/Signal verification?

Sometimes, and it depends on the service. Many services accept an SMS code sent to a WIGGWIGG number, but some (including certain messaging applications and most banks) refuse internet-based numbers at signup, and WhatsApp in particular is often picky about internet-based numbers. If an account needs to reach you at this number, test it before you rely on it, and keep a mobile number or an authenticator application for the ones that refuse.

Do you block spam calls?

Every inbound call runs through five checks (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof detection, carrier reputation, community signals, and your personal lists), and every verdict lands in your per-call filter log. Your block list always enforces, even with the rest of the filter off. Automatic strict blocking is opt-in and rolling out as we tune it against real traffic.

Can I screen unknown callers?

Yes, two ways, free on every number. Caller-intro screening asks unknown callers to record a 10-second 'who's calling and why' before your phone rings; you hear the intro on pickup, then accept or send to voicemail. The pickup announcement reads you the line label on answer, so you always know which of your numbers was dialed.

Call Forwarding

Can I disable forwarding for specific numbers?

Yes! You have full control over your WIGGWIGG numbers. By default, you can: forward calls to your verified phone numbers, set up auto-reply SMS responses, or enable Do Not Disturb to block all calls. Looking to block specific inbound callers or SMS senders? Use our personal block list. For automatic spam detection (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof, carrier reputation, community signals), see our Spam Filter feature page: every signal is yours to enable, disable, and tune.

How fast do calls forward?

Phone calls forward instantly, just like any other phone number. There's no delay - when someone calls your WIGGWIGG number, your real phone rings immediately.

SMS & Text Messages

Do SMS messages forward to my phone?

Yes! SMS messages to your WIGGWIGG numbers are available through the Communication section in your account. Eventually our mobile app will provide a unified messaging experience.

Can I send SMS from my WIGGWIGG numbers?

Yes! You can send and receive SMS messages in the WIGGWIGG iOS/Android app or the web dashboard. Go to the Messages section to compose and send texts from any of your WIGGWIGG numbers.

Are there SMS limitations?

A few caveats. Most verification codes arrive fine, but some banks and payment services refuse internet-based numbers for 2FA at enrollment, and short-code senders (bank alerts, transit alerts, etc.) may not deliver to internet-based numbers. MMS can be received, but may require the Communication section. International SMS and MMS are supported as outbound from your Canadian WIGGWIGG number via your World Balance, with per-country pricing. MMS to destinations outside Canada, the US, and Mexico falls back to SMS automatically.

Voicemail

How does voicemail work?

Voicemail is available as a paid add-on for your WIGGWIGG numbers. Here's how it keeps your data safe: when someone leaves a voicemail, it's temporarily recorded by our phone provider. We then pull the recording, encrypt it with your keys, and permanently delete it from the provider's servers. This means your voicemails are protected with the same zero-knowledge encryption as the rest of your data. Only you can access them.

Can I set custom voicemail greetings?

Yes! You can record custom voicemail greetings for each identity by calling your voicemail access number and following the prompts.

How do I access my voicemail?

Call your dedicated voicemail number (found in Phone Numbers → [Your Number] → Voicemail) and enter your PIN. Or view visual voicemail transcripts in the web dashboard (coming soon).

Can I get voicemail transcriptions?

Soon! Visual voicemail transcription arrives as its own add-on: you'll see voicemail messages as text in the app or web dashboard without calling in. Voicemail recordings themselves are available today with the voicemail add-on.

How long are voicemails stored?

Your voicemails are stored forever until you delete them. Once we pull voicemails from the provider and encrypt them with your keys, they remain in your account indefinitely. You have full control. If you close your account, all voicemail data is permanently deleted.

Account & Login

How do I reset my password if I forgot it?

If you've forgotten your password, use your recovery phrase (24-word seed) to regain access. Click 'Forgot Password' on the login page, then enter your recovery phrase. This is why we strongly recommend storing your recovery phrase securely when you create your account.

What is a passkey and should I use one?

A passkey is a modern authentication method using biometric verification (fingerprint, Face ID) or device PIN. It's more secure than passwords because it's phishing-resistant and unique to each device. We strongly recommend setting up at least one passkey as a backup login method.

What is TOTP/2FA and should I enable it?

TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password) adds an extra security layer by requiring a 6-digit code from an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy) when you log in. We highly recommend enabling TOTP for maximum security, especially if you store sensitive identities or use phone numbers for business.

How do I see my active sessions?

View all active sessions (devices logged into your account) in Settings → Security → Active Sessions. You can see device type, location, last activity, and revoke any session remotely. We recommend checking this regularly to ensure no unauthorized access.

Credits & Rewards

Can I try WIGGWIGG before paying?

Yes, in multiple ways! Free forever: 2 identities with password managers, no credit card required. 7-day free trial: try a real Canadian number free for 7 days, cancel anytime. Achievement credits: Earn $5 in free credit by completing simple tasks (create your first identity, verify your phone number, send your first message, etc.) to test phone numbers risk-free even after your trial.

What are achievement credits and how do I earn them?

Achievement credits are bonuses you earn by completing simple tasks: Create your first identity ($1), verify your phone number ($1), send SMS, voice, or MMS ($1), add a vault entry ($1), and enable 2FA or security question ($1). Total: $5 in free credits applied to your first paid month.

What happens when I run out of units?

Inbound calls and texts keep working, free. Outbound pauses at zero units unless you top up, turn on auto-refill, or set a spending limit that lets outbound continue at $0.06/unit up to the amount you chose. The default limit is $0, so nothing is ever charged past your prepaid units without your say-so.

Do achievement credits expire?

No! Achievement credits never expire as long as you remain a customer. They're automatically applied to your first paid month after the trial.

What is the spending limit?

A cap you set on spending past your prepaid units. It defaults to $0: outbound simply pauses when your units run out. Raise it and outbound keeps going at $0.06/unit, up to the amount you authorized. You're warned as you approach it, and inbound plus 911 always keep working.

Pricing & Billing

How much does it cost?

Start with 2 free identities that include password managers. A phone number is $7/month and comes with a complete identity. Calls and texts use prepaid units: 1 unit = 1 minute or 1 text, 4¢, sold in packs from $4 (100 units) to $48 (1200 units) that never expire. Try a number free for 7 days, then earn up to $5 in credits to reduce your first month.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), debit cards, and Bitcoin. All prices are in Canadian dollars (CAD).

When do I get charged?

Billing cycles start when you activate your first phone number. You're charged on the same day each month (or per your prepay term). You can change your billing date anytime in your account settings to better fit your schedule. Recurring items (numbers, add-ons, auto-refill) bill on your cycle; one-time purchases like unit packs and credit top-ups are charged when you buy them.

Are there any hidden fees?

No hidden fees! What you see is what you pay: the number ($7/month) + any optional add-ons (MMS, extra identities) + the prepaid units you buy. Nothing goes past your units without a spending limit you chose ($0 by default). E911 emergency calling is included free with every phone number.

Can I get a refund?

The trial is free, so there's nothing to refund. Unconsumed units are refundable at face value (4¢ each) to their original payment method, anytime, self-serve. For monthly items like a number, cancel anytime and it stays live until the end of the period you've paid for. Card payments go back to your card; crypto payments are refunded as credits (that payment method doesn't allow a direct return).

How do I update my payment method?

Go to Billing → Payment Methods. Add new card, set as primary, then optionally remove old card. Changes take effect immediately.

Do you charge taxes?

Yes. Canadian GST/HST/PST applies based on your billing address. Tax rates vary by province (5-15%). Taxes are clearly shown before you confirm any purchase.

Where can I see my invoices?

All invoices are available in Billing → Invoices. Download PDFs for expense reports or accounting. Invoices include itemized charges and tax breakdown.

What happens if my payment fails?

We notify you through in-app notifications and retry over the next few days. If payment still fails and billing is cancelled, you don't lose your number overnight: it's held free for 30 days. After that, keeping the number just means resuming its $7/month line, even with zero units, and the units you own never expire. Update your payment method anytime to restore service.

Plans & Subscriptions

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel your phone number subscriptions anytime, no contracts, no cancellation fees. Your 2 free identities are yours forever, even if you cancel phone numbers. Extra identities are monthly subscriptions you can cancel anytime.

What do you offer instead of plans?

There are no plans to pick. You compose your own setup: each number is $7/month and comes with a complete identity, and prepaid units power calls and texts (1 unit = 1 minute or 1 text, 4¢, packs from $4). Common examples: 1 number + 300 units = $19/month; 3 numbers sharing one pool + 300 units = $33/month. Every line is editable at checkout.

Can I change my setup later?

Yes, everything is modular. Add a number anytime (prorated fairly); removing one takes effect at the end of its paid period. Change your unit pack size or refill mode whenever you like: it only affects the next purchase, and units you already own never expire.

What happens if I remove a number mid-month?

The number stays live until the end of its paid month, then stops renewing. No partial-month math to argue over. Your units are account-wide, so they stay fully usable by your other numbers, and unconsumed units can be refunded at face value.

Is it cheaper to pay up front?

For a number, no: it's $7 per month whether you pay monthly or up front for 3, 6 or 12 months. Our cost doesn't drop because you paid early, so your price doesn't either. What paying up front gives you is one less recurring charge: no card on file, and you can pay in crypto. Extra identities keep their prepay discounts (up to 10%), and annual Vault Premium works out to 2 months free. Unit packs are always flat-priced: 4¢ a unit, whatever the size.

What happens when my trial ends?

As your 7-day trial nears its end, we'll notify you in-app to decide how you'd like to continue, and you get 3 grace days after it ends to choose. If you add a payment method and continue, you'll be charged for the setup you chose; we never charge without your explicit approval. If not, phone features stop but you keep the 2 free identities forever.

Privacy & Security

How do you protect my privacy?

Your real contact info stays completely private. All communication goes through our forwarding system. We use client-side zero-knowledge encryption with AES-256-GCM and Argon2id memory-hard key derivation. Your encryption key is derived from your password on your device and never leaves it. We mathematically cannot decrypt your identity details, passwords, vault entries, or SMS content.

What data do you collect?

We categorize data by encryption level. Zero-Knowledge Encrypted: identity details, vault passwords, SMS content, voicemail audio and transcripts, and preferences are all encrypted on your device before reaching our servers. We mathematically cannot decrypt this. Server-Encrypted: phone numbers for routing, E911 addresses, and billing info are encrypted at rest but briefly accessible for VoIP routing and emergency calls. Operational Metadata: account ID, subscription tier, usage counts, login timestamps, and call metadata (who called who, when, duration) are needed to provide the service. View your complete data transparency report in Settings → Privacy & Data to see every field we store, how it's encrypted, and what third parties can access. We never sell your data or use it for advertising.

What data can our phone carrier see?

Our telecom carrier sees phone call metadata (who called who, when, duration) and SMS content in transit, just like your regular phone carrier does. This is standard for all phone services that interoperate with the public network. Once delivered, our stored copy of the SMS body is sealed with your key (hybrid X25519 + HKDF-SHA256 + AES-256-GCM), so even we cannot decrypt it at rest. What the carrier CANNOT see: your passwords, identity details (names, addresses, dates of birth), or personal notes. Those are encrypted with zero-knowledge encryption before leaving your device.

Why do you verify SMS and call content?

Canadian regulations require all phone service providers to watch for spam, fraud, and illegal activity on their networks. We flag robocalls, phishing texts, and harassment so you can decide what to block, and we report illegal content like CSAM when the law requires it. This is standard practice: your regular phone carrier does the same thing. We don't auto-reject your messages, we don't read your personal conversations, and we never use content for advertising.

Where are your servers located?

Our VoIP carrier uses USA-based servers, so your Canadian phone numbers route through USA infrastructure. Your zero-knowledge encrypted data (identities, credentials, notes, personal information) is encrypted on your device before reaching any server. We mathematically cannot decrypt your data regardless of where it's stored. We're a Canadian company subject to Canadian privacy laws (PIPEDA). For VoIP services, phone call metadata (who you called, when, duration) is processed by our carrier as required by telecommunications regulations. This is standard for any phone provider, Canadian or American. See 'Why does WIGGWIGG use USA infrastructure?' for full context.

Why does WIGGWIGG use USA infrastructure for VoIP services?

We're a Canadian company with Canadian phone numbers, but our VoIP carrier routes calls through USA servers. We initially sought Canadian-only infrastructure, but Canadian carriers were hesitant to work with a startup. Partnering with a USA-based VoIP carrier lets us build our reputation and prepare for future USA market expansion. Here's what matters for your privacy: Your zero-knowledge encrypted data (passwords, identity details, notes) is encrypted on your device before reaching any server. USA or Canadian location doesn't compromise what we mathematically cannot decrypt. Phone call metadata (who you called, when, duration) is processed by our VoIP carrier as required by telecommunications law. This applies to any carrier, Canadian or American. We're transparent about this because honesty is a core value. We're subject to Canadian privacy laws (PIPEDA), and your most sensitive data remains cryptographically inaccessible regardless of infrastructure location.

What happens to my data if I stop using the service?

If you cancel your subscription: Phone service stops immediately. You keep the 2 free identities (no phone features). If payment fails: We notify you and retry over the next few days. You don't lose your number overnight: if the subscription is eventually cancelled for nonpayment, your number is held free for 30 days, and you can keep it by resuming its $7/month line before it's released; units you own never expire. If you delete your account: You must cancel all active subscriptions first. Account enters 30-day grace period (you can undo deletion). After 30 days, we permanently delete: identities, vault data, call logs, SMS history, voicemails. We retain billing records (7 years, tax law). Export your data first: Download all your information from Settings → Privacy & Data before deleting your account. We cannot recover deleted data.

Can WIGGWIGG employees see my passwords?

No. Your passwords are encrypted on your device before they reach our servers. We don't have the decryption keys. Only you do. No one at WIGGWIGG can access your passwords.

Is WIGGWIGG open source?

Not yet. Our priority right now is building a platform you can trust with your data. Our roadmap is: build and launch, then get a third-party security audit, earn SOC 2 and other compliance certifications, and eventually open-source the codebase. In the meantime, our zero-knowledge encryption runs entirely in your browser, so you can inspect exactly what happens to your data using your browser's developer tools. No trust required.

Anti-Phishing Protection

What is my security identity?

Your security identity is a unique phrase + avatar + optional audio signature shown during login. It proves you're on the real WIGGWIGG, not a phishing site. If you don't see YOUR exact security identity, close the page immediately.

What is the audio signature feature?

The audio signature is an optional 6-note musical pattern that plays during login. It's unique to you. Some people remember sounds better than visuals. It's a multi-sensory verification option.

What should I do if I don't see my security identity?

STOP immediately! Do not enter your password. 1) Close the browser tab. 2) Type wiggwigg.ca directly in your address bar. 3) Change your password if you entered it. 4) Report the phishing site to support@wiggwigg.ca.

Recovery Access

What is a recovery phrase and why do I need one?

Your recovery phrase is a unique 24-word sequence that acts as a master backup key. If you lose your password AND all your passkeys, your recovery phrase can restore full account access. It's your ultimate safety net.

Where should I store my recovery phrase?

DO: Write on paper, store in a safe or safety deposit box, consider metal backup plates. DON'T: Store in password managers, take photos, email yourself, save in cloud storage, or share with anyone.

Can I change my recovery phrase?

Yes! Generate a new recovery phrase anytime in Settings → Security → Recovery Phrase → Rotate Phrase. The old phrase immediately becomes invalid when the new one is created.

Business Features & Teams

Do you offer team and business accounts?

Not yet, but we're open to building team and business features if there's enough interest. We want to understand your specific needs: shared identities, team billing, admin controls, or something else? Contact us through our contact page to share your requirements and help shape this feature.

Can I set up call forwarding rules for different times?

Yes! Advanced Routing is a paid add-on ($3/month per phone number) that lets you set up time-based call routing and scheduling. Forward calls to different numbers based on time of day, day of week, or holidays. Perfect for businesses that need different routing during office hours vs after hours.

Data & Account Management

What happens to my number and my data if WIGGWIGG shuts down?

We'd rather answer this question before you ask it. In Canada your number belongs to you: CRTC rules give you the right to move it to another provider, and the new provider handles the transfer. For now, that transfer goes through our support: write to us and we'll give you the account details to hand to your new provider. Your data can be exported any time from Settings → Privacy & Data (JSON or HTML). If WIGGWIGG ever had to wind down, you would get advance notice and a clear transition period to move your number and export your data. Your safety net is regulation and architecture, not a promise.

How do I export all my data?

Go to Settings → Privacy & Data tab and click Export Data (JSON) or Export Data (HTML). The export includes: identities (zero-knowledge encrypted), your WIGGWIGG phone numbers (server-encrypted, for routing), SMS/MMS content and remote phone numbers (decrypted on-device for the export), call/SMS metadata, billing history, and account settings. Vault passwords remain encrypted in the export. Download completes instantly.

Can I delete my account? What happens to my data?

Yes. Go to Settings → Privacy & Data, scroll to Delete Account section. The app guides you through any necessary steps (cancelling subscriptions, releasing phone numbers), then confirm with your Account ID. You get a 30-day grace period to undo deletion by logging back in. After 30 days, we permanently delete: all identities, vault data, call logs, SMS history, voicemails, phone numbers, contacts, payment methods, security credentials, support tickets, achievements, and all encrypted files. We retain invoices and billing records for 7 years (Canadian tax law) and security audit logs. Export your data first. We cannot recover deleted data.

How do I request my personal data (GDPR/PIPEDA)?

Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA) gives you the right to access your data. Data requests are only accepted through the app for identity verification. We cannot verify your identity via email. Go to Settings → Privacy & Data and click Export Data to download all your information instantly. This is the fastest and most secure way to access your complete data.

Technical Support

What happens if my internet connection drops during a call?

Inbound calls: Nothing, the call continues because it's connected to your forwarded phone number (which uses cellular). Outbound calls: The call drops immediately since they use VoIP (internet-based). You'll need to call back. Internet-based calls don't automatically reconnect when your connection is restored.

I'm not receiving forwarded calls. What should I do?

First, verify your forwarding phone number is correct in phone settings. Check that your phone has signal and isn't in Do Not Disturb mode. If issues persist, submit a support ticket through the app, go to Settings → Help & Support → Contact Support. Include your WIGGWIGG phone number and forwarding number. We investigate call routing issues quickly.

What browsers do you support?

Modern browsers only: Chrome 90+, Firefox 88+, Safari 14+, Edge 90+. WebAuthn (passkey) support required. Internet Explorer not supported.

Is there an API for developers?

Not yet. Developer API is planned for 2026 to allow custom integrations, automation, and third-party app development.

On Android, calls don't ring when my phone is locked. How do I fix it?

WIGGWIGG needs permission to show incoming calls over your lock screen. On Android 14 and newer that's a separate full-screen notifications permission. The app prompts you to enable it the first time you have a number; if you skipped it, go to Settings → Apps → WIGGWIGG → Notifications and allow full-screen notifications (some phones list it under "Appear on top" or "Display over other apps"). Once granted, a locked-screen call rings and appears full-screen like a normal phone call.

Real-time delivery is stuck on "Connecting" and I miss calls unless the app is open (Android).

On a de-Googled Android device (no Google Play Services), WIGGWIGG keeps a secure background connection so calls and texts arrive instantly. Android's battery optimization can freeze that connection while the app is in the background, which leaves delivery stuck on "Connecting." The fix is one setting: set WIGGWIGG's battery usage to Unrestricted (Settings → Apps → WIGGWIGG → Battery → Unrestricted), or tap Allow when the app asks to run in the background. On devices with Google services this isn't needed; delivery uses the system push channel. Either way, this setting only affects delivery, not security: your stored messages stay sealed so no one at WIGGWIGG can read them.
