[Dots][Voice] Let dot call the user for important, time-sensitive alerts #52692

Description

@anotb

What variant of Codex are you using?

ChatGPT dot in the mobile app.

What feature would you like to see?

Please let dot initiate an actual incoming voice call when something important needs my attention.

Ordinary notifications are easy to miss in notification overload, especially for people who keep their phones on silent. If dot notices a genuinely important, time-sensitive update, it should have the option to call and explain what needs attention.

Requested behavior:

  • An opt-in setting allowing dot to call for important alerts, with simple controls for when it can call.
  • A real incoming-call screen with answer and decline controls.
  • On answering, dot briefly explains why it called and lets the conversation continue naturally.
  • If the call is missed or declined, leave a concise summary in the dot conversation.

Examples could include a last-minute change affecting an upcoming plan, an approaching deadline that needs a decision, or a task blocked on an urgent answer.

Additional information

Please make it clear how these calls interact with silent mode and Do Not Disturb on each platform, including any supported settings users would need to enable.
