People App Calls not working

Hey y’all,

Recently picked up Quest 3’s for my dad and I. The first day we got them, we were able to successfully make a call to each other via the People app so we could talk while gaming. These past couple days however, the People app hasn’t been connecting our calls. It gets to this loading screen after you attempt to join the call but never ends up connecting. We have had the meta app open on our iPhones when attempting to call each other too and it still didn’t work. Anyone else having similar issues? Any known fixes out there? Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Chris

    Hey cru_ease! It looks like this may have been missed by the support team but I didn't want to leave you hanging. 

    If you're still running into this issue, there is something a bit basic that seemed to work for me:

    1. Go to your system settings
    2. Unmute the system mic 
    3. Try calling again, it should now work

    If you were able to get it set up, feel free to post what helped out in case anyone else jumps in here with the same thing! 

    If you're still needing help, I would suggest reaching out to MetaStoreHelp through PM for them to get a closer look into everything.
