Avoid late calls with GHL’s quiet hours alerts
Quiet hours calling is now available inside the GoHighLevel web dialer. This new feature helps users avoid calling contacts before 8am or after 9pm in the contact’s local time. It adds a simple but powerful alert that shows the current time for the contact and warns the caller when it falls outside typical business hours.
The goal is to reduce missed calls, avoid negative experiences, and improve connection rates. Instead of guessing the right time to call, users now get a clear prompt before dialing when a contact might not be available.

GHL’s quiet hours calling feature helps avoid disruptive outreach by alerting the user before calling outside a contact’s local 8am to 9pm window. This helps improve answer rates, reduce complaints, and protect the caller’s reputation, especially for teams making outbound calls every day.Â
Quick Summary – Quiet Hours Calling Essentials
 Purpose: This feature helps users avoid calling contacts outside of their local business hours by showing a warning before the call.
Why It Matters: It reduces the chances of missed calls and keeps teams from contacting leads at the wrong time.
What You Get: Users see a simple alert when calling before 8am or after 9pm in the contact’s time zone. They can choose to continue or cancel.
Time to Complete: There is nothing to set up. It is turned on by default and ready to go.
Difficulty Level: Very easy. Anyone can use it without changing how they make calls.
Key Outcome: Teams improve their call timing, avoid complaints, and build better outreach habits using quiet hours calling.
What’s New in the Dialer  Â
With this update, the GoHighLevel web dialer now shows a contact’s current local time right before you call. If the time is outside of quiet hours, the system gives you a warning and two clear options: Call Anyway or Cancel.
This prompt appears only when the contact’s time is earlier than 8am or later than 9pm. That way, the user can make an informed choice before proceeding.

This change applies to both the native GHL Phone System and Twilio-connected subaccounts. It’s designed for live manual calls made inside the web app. Deskphones and mobile app calls are not affected yet, but mobile support is on the roadmap.
It’s also worth noting that this prompt only triggers for outbound calls made directly through the dialer. Automated calls sent through workflows are not impacted, which gives users more flexibility when designing campaigns.
How Quiet Hours Calling Works  Â
The quiet hours calling feature in GoHighLevel checks the contact’s local time before each outbound call. If the time is outside the range of 8am to 9pm, a prompt appears to let the user know. This helps prevent calling someone too early or too late.
To figure out the right time zone, GHL follows this order:
- First, it checks if a time zone was added when the contact was created or imported.
- If that’s missing, it looks at the contact’s phone number area code to guess the time zone.
- If neither of those are available, it uses the subaccount’s default time zone.
This layered approach gives users a good chance of reaching people at the right time. It’s not perfect, especially with virtual or ported numbers, but it covers most situations well.
The warning only shows up in the web dialer. Users will see a message if the call is outside quiet hours, along with two options:
- Call Anyway
- Cancel
This doesn’t stop calls from happening. It just gives a heads-up so the caller can make a smart choice.
Right now, the quiet hours calling prompt only applies to manual calls from the browser. It doesn’t work on deskphones, the mobile app, or inside workflows. Mobile support is expected in a future update.
How to Use or Disable It in Settings  Â
Quiet hours calling is turned on by default in every GoHighLevel subaccount. That means the web dialer will show a warning if a user tries to call someone before 8am or after 9pm in that person’s local time.
If a team prefers to turn off this feature, it’s easy to do in the settings. Here’s how:
Step 01 – Access the Settings Area in GoHighLevelÂ
- Go to the left-hand sidebar, look all the way to the bottom.
1.1 Click on the gear icon ⚙️ labeled Settings.
- You’ll now be in the main Settings dashboard, where you can access:
- My Profile
- Company
- Team
- Billing
- and more.

Step 02 – Open Phone System Settings
- You should now be in the subaccount settings.
2.1 Click the Phone System section.
2.2 Click the Additional Settings tab.
- There should be sub-tabs for advanced settings, including Voice Calls.
2.3 Click the Voice Calls tab.
2.4 Click the Outbound Call option.
2.5 Tick the Avoid calling people during quiet hours checkbox.

Both agency admins and subaccount users can change this setting. Some teams might want more flexibility with call times, while others may prefer the reminder before calling too early or too late.
The good news is there’s nothing to set up manually. GoHighLevel checks the time zone using the contact’s info, area code, or the subaccount’s location. Everything runs in the background.
Quiet hours calling gives users more control without adding more work. It helps teams stay respectful and efficient with every call.
Best Practices for Call Timing  Â
The quiet hours calling feature in GoHighLevel gives teams a helpful warning before calling outside the usual 8am to 9pm window. Still, it’s smart to have a plan for when to call and who to call first.
Here are a few tips to get better results with your calls:
- Sort contacts by location or time zone. This helps the team call people when they are most likely to pick up.
- Stick to regular business hours. If a contact has not asked for an early or late call, keep it between 9 to 5 whenever possible.
- Pay attention to the dialer’s warning. If the system says it’s too early or late, pause and consider waiting.
- Know your audience. For example, medical offices and law firms often prefer morning calls. Local shops might be open later in the day.
Quiet hours calling works best when paired with basic call habits. It helps users avoid bad timing and improves the chance of a real conversation. Teams that use this as a guide, not just a setting, will see better results without needing to do more.
Pro Tips for Agencies and TeamsÂ
Agencies that manage outbound calls every day know how timing can affect results. The quiet hours calling feature in GoHighLevel gives teams a small but valuable check before making a call at the wrong time.
Here are a few smart ways agencies can put it to work:
- Use the warning as a reminder, not a rule. Teach reps to pause when they see the alert. Sometimes it makes sense to wait. Sometimes it doesn’t.
- Review your call logs regularly. Look at when calls go out and how often they connect. Use that info to find the best calling hours for your audience.
- Add quiet hours calling to team training. Make sure new team members know it’s there and how to use it well.
- Match the setting to the client. A team calling homeowners should leave it on. A team working with international partners might need it off.
This update gives agencies more control without more effort. It also shows clients that the agency is paying attention to the details that matter, like when and how their audience is contacted.
Quiet hours calling may be a small change, but it helps teams build better habits. And when used right, it supports more respectful, effective communication.
