ButterflyMX intercom

When you have a visitor, your intercom can notify you via:

  • the Ambient app
  • the ButterflyMX app, phone or text
    Tip: For help with your ButterflyMX app, phone, or text notifications, see your ButterflyMX app or contact ButterflyMX Support.

Important: The Ambient app only notifies you when your visitor calls you from the intercom. If your visitor texts you from the intercom, you won't see a notification from the Ambient app.

To troubleshoot Ambient app notifications for your intercom, try these steps:

  1. Connect your ButterflyMX account to Ambient.
    You must connect your ButterflyMX account to Ambient before you can use the Ambient app to answer visitor calls. See How to connect your ButterflyMX intercom to Ambient.
