Behavior

Open at login When this feature is enabled, Tuple will automatically launch when you log into your computer after a restart or explicit logout. Note that it will not launch if your computer is merely locked or asleep. Always show dock icon With this enabled, Tuple will always have an icon in the dock / command-tab carousel. When disabled, a Tuple icon will only appear in those locations when you’re on a call. Enable call feedback popup When this feature is enabled, the call feedback form will show up after you conclude a Tuple call. Notify me when I’m in calls alone When this setting is on, Tuple reminds you when everyone else has left a room, or when you’ve been alone in a call for a while. Click Leave on the reminder to end the call, or Stay to keep it going. If you don’t answer, the reminder goes away and you stay in the call. Turn this off if you like to stay in a room so others can drop in. You can also choose Don’t Remind Me Again from the reminder’s Stay menu, which turns this setting off.
