How call setup, in-call quality and user ratings moved for calls originating in the UAE (AE→AE, AE→US, AE→Europe) from January to mid-October 2026, and the call-quality work Core CoE shipped along the way.
Data as of 2026-10-14 · ProductBoard snapshot 2026-10-14
Part 1 · What changed
Weekly rates. Numbered pins mark when key call-quality work was released. They are there to show timing, and a pin lining up with a drop does not by itself prove the release caused it.
The caller never heard ringing and the callee never connected ÷ paired calls
In-call bad-call rate
Any video, audio or connection issue during the call ÷ all call legs
V3 dashboard view by country: call-not-ring and total bad call (Jan → Oct)
Lighthouse V3 "Total" family, filtered by country (the reporting user's IP country: every call leg made or received by users located in AE, the US or Europe, whatever the other side is). V3 divides by all calls, including unanswered ones, so these numbers are on a different scale from the V2 charts above. A true caller→callee corridor view is only kept for the last 91 days, so it can't be shown for the full year.
Call-not-ring % (callout no-ring ÷ all calls)
Total bad call % (not-ring + unanswered bad + answered bad)
P2P call rating (CSAT)
The post-call star rating users leave on 1:1 calls, from voip_rating_stat_v2 with the same definitions as Lighthouse › VoIP › CSAT. The rating label is the real caller_callee pair. Separate AE→US and AE→EU labels only exist from 2026-05-05; AE→AE goes back to Jul 2025.
Average rating (1–5★), weighted by rating count
Satisfied rate: 4–5★ ÷ all ratings
Monthly rating table (avg · audio · video · 4–5★ · 1★ · iOS vs Android)
Monthly table
The same numbers by month. A month's rate is sum(numerator) ÷ sum(denominator) over the days that have data.
Read before quoting a number.
Bad call comes from ads_botim_voip_result_van_bad_call_1d_di, split by pp (caller country_callee country), so it is a true corridor. The country-pair column only starts on 2026-01-23, which means "January" covers 9 days.
Not-ring and total not-ring come from ads_botim_voip_result_call_setup_1d_di, which only records the callee country. The corridors there are therefore a proxy (callee in AE / US / EU). We checked the proxy against the paired caller↔callee table for 2026-05-28 → 07-06: total not-ring matched within ±0.3pp, and silence read 0.6–0.7pp high. Use the proxy for trends, not for exact levels.
2026-05-19/20/21 have no call-setup data and are excluded. Call-setup data matures at T+7, so it ends on 10-12.
