The documentation for Vocera Collaboration Suite version 3.0.1 for Apple iOS is available online:

• Vocera Collaboration Suite Apple iOS User Guide

From this online help location, you can download the PDF version of the VCS 3.0.1 documentation.

Vocera Collaboration Suite version 3.0.1 provides support for any of the following devices running iOS 8.1 and later:

• Apple iPhone 5, 5C, 5S, 6, 6 Plus, 6S, 6S Plus

• Apple iPad (3rd generation and later) WiFi and WiFi + 3G

• Apple iPad mini WiFi and WiFi + 3G

Some of the features of Vocera Collaboration Suite version 3.0.x are provided on the Apple Watch.

Vocera Collaboration Suite 3.0.1 clients require VMP Server 5.1.0 for full functionality. When a Vocera Collaboration Suite 3.0.1 client is connected to VMP Server version 4.9.2 to version 4.9.4, the client uses version 2.0.2 backward compatibility mode to interact with the server.

Vocera Voice Server 4.4.1 or later is required. If your organization is using Vocera Voice Server departments and synchronizing them with VMP groups, Vocera Voice Server 5.1 or later must be installed.

VMP Server 5.1 does not support message templates in which one or more recipients are Escalation Distribution Lists and other recipients are regular users. Only one Escalation Distribution List can be listed as a recipient, and it must be the only recipient.

• Calls from Contact Details screen now logged as urgent. When you make an Urgent Call from the Contact Details screen, it is now recorded in the Call Log as urgent. (DE7315)

• Additional screen no longer appears when attempting to answer Call from Apple Watch. When you receive a Call notification on the Apple Watch, scroll down to view the Call options, and scroll up to tap Answer, a screen no longer appears that asks you whether you want to decline or accept the Call. (DE7424)

• Audio mode options now behave as expected when Bluetooth headset disconnected during Call. If you disconnect the Bluetooth headset during a Call, the Bluetooth option is now properly shown as disabled. (DE7454)

• Secure Message screen now behaving as expected on iPad when new message started and screen switched to another module. On an iPad, if you tap Compose to start a new message, switch to the Call module or any other module, return to the Secure Messages screen, and select New Text or a template, the New Secure Message screen is now displayed as expected. Clicking again resolves this state. (DE7548)

• Escalation Distribution List can now be added to message recipient list if user added and deleted. If you create a Secure Message, add a user to the recipient list, and then remove the user from the recipient list, you can now add an Escalation Distribution List to the recipient list. (DE7553)

• Bluetooth headset connection now established in Call if it is connected after VCS is started. If you start VCS and connect a Bluetooth headset, and then attempt to initiate a Call, it is now properly sent over the headset. (DE7563)

• Panic Call can now be initiated from Apple Watch when screen is off. If you tap the Panic Call button on the Apple Watch, and move your hand so that the screen becomes dark, the Panic Call is now no longer canceled. (DE7603)

• Panic Call can now be initiated from Apple Watch when DND for Call is set. If you have set Do Not Disturb for Call, you can now make a Panic Call from the Apple Watch. (DE7604)

• Escalation Distribution List now added to message recipient list when displayed in To field on iPad. If you compose a Secure Message on an iPad, type the first few characters of the word "escalation" in the To field, and an Escalation Distribution List appears in the list of recipient options to select, the list is now added to the To field when you click on it. (DE7623)

• Speaker audio mode no longer indicated when Call is going through handset. If you receive an Urgent Call and then end it, and then receive a regular Call, the Speaker audio mode icon is no longer highlighted instead of the Handset icon. (DE7653)

• Urgent Call placed from VMP Web Console no longer listed as missed call in Call Log. If you place an Urgent Call from the VMP Web Console, the Call Log on your app no longer lists this Call as an Urgent Missed Call. (DE7692)

• Call or Urgent Call to Voice group no longer listed as missed call to group member. If you place a Call or an Urgent Call to a Voice group of which you are a member, and another group member answers it, the Call Log now does not list the Call or Urgent Call as a missed call to this group member. (DE7694, DE7695)

• Message tone and vibration settings now consistent on device platforms. If you log into an Apple iOS device and set your notification tone and vibration options, these settings are now preserved if you log into an Android device. Similarly, settings created on an Android device are now preserved if you log into an Apple iOS device. (DE7742)

• Date information no longer truncated for older messages. Message date stamps that include the day of the week or the date, month, and year are no longer truncated. (DE7789)

• Operation Failed message no longer occurs when placing a Call while the Wi-Fi connection has been lost and re-established. If your device loses its Wi-Fi connection and then re-establishes it while you are placing a Call, you no longer see an Operation Failed message. (DE7926)

• Response no longer required for message from template after app first initiated. When you send a message from a template immediately after you have started the Vocera Collaboration Suite app, you no longer have to provide at least one response to the message. (DE9172)

This release includes the following known issues and limitations for versions of the Vocera Collaboration Suite running on Apple iOS operating systems.

1. Audio is skipped after Call completed. When you have terminated a Call, the audio on your device may briefly skip every 20 to 30 seconds for a maximum of 5 minutes. Restarting the VCS app eliminates this problem. (DE6039)

2. Unread message counter not updated if message sent while in conversation. If you receive a message while in a conversation, and then return to the Secure Messages screen, the Call Log icon at the bottom of the screen incorrectly includes this conversation in its count of conversations containing unread messages. (DE8272)

3. High priority message notification not interrupted by call (iOS 9.1 only). On devices running iOS version 9.1, if a high priority message notification is being played and an incoming call is received, the notification for the call should interrupt the notification for the message, but does not. This behavior results from how iOS version 9.1 handles multiple system notifications. (DE8693)

4. High priority message notification continues playing after call is answered (iOS 9.0 and later). On devices running iOS version 9.0 or later, if a High priority message is sent to a device followed by an urgent call, the notification tone for the message should stop playing when the call is answered, but does not. This is due to a problem with the Apple API for local notifications. (DE8695)

5. Urgent notification displayed twice if new call or notification received (iOS 9.0 and later). On devices running iOS version 9.0 or later, if a new call or notification appears while an existing urgent notification is being processed, the urgent notification is displayed twice. (DE8702)

6. VMP user entries are not loaded correctly if Title or Public ID contains an apostrophe. If you are running Vocera Collaboration Suite on the iOS operating system, and your application is attempting to import a VMP user into the Contacts screen when its Title or Public ID field contains an apostrophe, the record is not loaded properly, and significant delays may occur during registration and contact searches. (DE9073)

7. Vocera Collaboration Suite does not automatically start on device restart if device password required. On all versions of the iOS operating system, if you have supplied a password for your device and you restart the device, you must enter the password before the Vocera Collaboration Suite will automatically start. This is a restriction in the iOS operating system: no interfaces, including Wi-Fi, are connected until the password is supplied.
