Say Goodbye to Hold Music: How to Set Up Your Android Phone to Wait on Hold for You

Have you ever been stuck on hold for what feels like hours, listening to the same annoying tune repeatedly? Well, fear not! With a few simple steps, you can set up your Android phone to wait on hold for you, so you can go about your day and get a notification when the call is answered.

Here's how to set it up:

Step 1: Download and Install the "Hold for Me" App

Google's "Hold for Me" app is the perfect tool. You can download it from the Google Play Store. Once you've installed the app, open it up.

Step 2: Grant Permissions

When you open the app, it will ask permission to access your microphone and phone. Grant these permissions to allow the app to listen to the hold music and detect when someone answers the call.

Step 3: Initiate the Call

Make your call as you usually would. Once you're on hold, tap the "Hold for Me" button on the app's main screen. The app will take over and monitor the call for you.

Step 4: Minimize the App

You can minimize the "Hold for Me" app and go about your day. The app will automatically detect when someone answers the call, and you will receive a notification on your phone.

Step 5: Resume the Call

Once you receive the notification, tap on it to resume the call. The app will automatically unmute your microphone so you can speak to the representative.

And that's it! With these simple steps, you can set up your Android phone to wait on hold for you, so you don't have to waste your valuable time listening to hold music.
