 8 x 8 Work App volume too low

I have recently installed the 8 x 8 Work App on my Android phone, but I'm missing too many calls because the ring volume is too low even though I have the phone's volume set to maximum and my work colleagues have asked me to turn it down because the volume for normal calls are too loud, I am not part of a Teams call or group, so it is not that particular problem, this looks like a software bug.

Has anyone else seen this problem and found a fix for it.

Hi Steve.  We have also had users complain of this. Usually the fix is to go into the profile on the app, then Settings, then Incoming Calls, then Sound, then choose a different ring tone than the default ringtone. The ring tone will start ringing. Use the volume buttons on the side of the phone to increase the ringer volume to the desired level and hit OK. 

We don't get cellular calls on our devices as well so I can't say if this also changes the ring volume of your non-8x8 calls, but this is how we have fixed it when users complain that they can't hear the ringer for the app.
