## What is Pub Ding?

Press the button, and another iPhone in a different room goes “Ding-Dong!”. A simple call bell for home: call family from the bedroom to the kitchen without raising your voice. On its own, it's the call button from a Japanese pub, just for fun.

GREAT FOR
- Calling family in the kitchen or living room from the bedroom or the kids' room
- When calling out loud is hard: one press is enough
- Letting someone downstairs know you need them
- House parties

HOW IT WORKS (TWO DEVICES)
1. On the iPhone that should ring, turn on Two Devices in Settings and choose Receiver. It shows a 4-digit code
2. On the other iPhone, turn on Two Devices too, choose Button, enter the code and tap Pair
3. Just press the big button. The receiver keeps ringing, with sound, vibration and a flashing screen, until someone taps “Coming!”
4. Once they tap “Coming!”, your iPhone shows it

FEATURES
- One button that fills the screen: press anywhere on the red, no need to aim
- Pair once, and the devices reconnect by themselves
- Name each device, like “Bedroom” or “Kids' Room”, to see where a call comes from
- Connect as many buttons as you like to one receiver
- No sign-up, and no internet needed (keep Wi-Fi on on both devices)
- Three chimes: pub (ding-dong), restaurant (bing-bong) and bar (ting)

PLEASE NOTE
- Keep the app open on the receiver (its screen stays on by itself; keeping it charging is best). It can't receive calls while another app is in front or the screen is off
- Turn on Wi-Fi on both devices. They connect on the same Wi-Fi, or directly when they are near each other
- In an emergency, call your local emergency number. This app does not replace emergency services or the nurse call system of a hospital or care home
