satellite is the sipgate app with its own mobile number. It works no matter who your current provider is – and you can be reached from anywhere in the world. Use satellite alongside your current mobile plan, or switch to satellite completely. Make calls just like you’re used to, and stay reachable on your satellite number – whether it’s friends, family, or the plumber calling. To them, it’s just another regular call – no app required.
What you get:
* A German mobile number
* Simultaneous multi-device use
* Always-on reachability, even with the app closed
* Great call quality – even on slow connections
* Calls over Wi-Fi or mobile data – no SIM needed
* Encrypted calls using SRTP and TLS
* 100 free minutes/month to landlines and mobile networks in 60 countries (including Germany)
* AI-generated call summaries
* Smart inbox to help you handle and collaborate on calls
Hundreds of thousands of people worldwide already use satellite.
The press says:
“Wenn etwas gut ist, dann ist es einfach gut” – ComputerBild
“Dienst und App überzeugen - sie belegen nachdrücklich, wie einfach man zusätzliche Mobilfunknummern auf modernen Smartphones nutzen kann” – Heise online
We developed satellite from scratch and even built our own telecom carrier from the ground up, making satellite way more than just another VoIP app: satellite gives you real independence from the big mobile providers in Germany.
The best of mobile and VoIP
satellite offers the convenience of a mobile number with the flexibility of VoIP. All backed by our own infrastructure, used reliably by hundreds of thousands of users since 2018XX. All you need is a Wi-Fi or mobile data connection. And since your number isn’t tied to a SIM card, switching data providers is easy.

You are out of luck when Satellite Service does not work
iET Calling Home
When Satellite Service works, it is excellent. However, when it does not work, customer service is nonexistent. I have reached out to your customer service help directly several times and have not received any reply other than an automated reply. Very disappointing. Instead of replying to feedback on the App Store maybe it would be a good idea to actually help customers in need. Just saying.
Developer Response
In case of telephony problems it is always helpful to send us a message to help@satellite.me. Because most of the time we can find the cause and fix the error. Just give it a try!
It is easy to instal and works great!!!

If you need a german cell phone number to be reached its perfect! No SIM card needed
Feed back and new inbox
rnetter
Satellite use to be a good app but then they started to ask for feedback after every call. Once a year would be really enough people. The new Inbox is a nightmare. I wish they had an option to stay with the old UI or at least made it so it’s less click and simple and less flashy colors.
Good call quality, missing key features
kintopp
Call quality appears to be good. Better than Skype with low bandwidth. Irritating that one cannot paste a telephone number into the dial pad. I don’t want to have to share my entire contact list.
We made it easier to see if you're logged into a channel and to log in and out directly from your inbox. And as always, we've made a few improvements under the hood to keep things running smoothly.
