How to 'do something' after answering call on Android?

See original GitHub issue

Please excuse my potential mis-interpretation of the documentation, but it does not seem obvious how to ‘do something’ after answering an incoming call.

On Android, I have successfully called displayIncomingCall, but I am having the same results as detailed in this issue. I want to call a function when the called is answered. Tyvmia.

@manuquentin I’ve tested the example and have made a screen recording - as you can see both incoming call interfaces are displayed one after the other.

I think there may ultimately be two different issues here - one is the above, and secondly, what I want to achieve is that when a call is answered by accepting the call, the incoming call interface disappears (for want of a better word) and my app appears! Like for example when you get an incoming video call on WhatsApp, and after answering a call, the call screen (video) is shown. At the moment I accept this may not work if my app has been killed or is in the background.

In the example app the incoming call screen disappears and ‘phone call’ then takes place. I don’t have this ‘call’ taking place, is that why the incoming call UI will not disappear on accept or reject?

I appreciate this is more of a support request and possibly less of an ‘issue’. Thanks!

EDIT: the second incoming call UI (full screen) that is shown in the video above appears for a very short period of time and disappears by itself without swiping up to answer the call.

I’m using RN 0.59.9 and Android 10 on a physical Pixel 2 XL.

@JustinBeBoy I’m unfortuantely tied up with other stuff at the moment, but over the summer I expect to be back on this and make a formal pull request for my branch - I just need to discuss something with the callkeep maintainers on how to handle some stuff that must be handled different.
