Descripción

Use the Vodia PBX telephone system from home, from the office and from anywhere using your iOS device!

This app takes the VoIP phone to a new level. You can use your iPhone as extension to the Vodia PBX and work from any place that has a decent internet connection. If you like, you can use it in parallel with one or more VoIP phones on your desk.
Users can send, receive and transfer calls. Calls are put on hold when other calls are coming in from other apps. Sending DTMF and muting the audio is possible, and the user can switch between speaker phone, handset and bluetooth devices. It registers for the Apple push notification service to wake it up for incoming calls.
Users can send each other text messages or images. If the PBX is set up for SMS, the user can also send and receive messages to external parties.
Users can see what extensions are available, on DND or in a call. Users can control their DND status manually from the app or automatically from the telephone system, making work/life balance easier. Users review the call history on the PBX through the app. The user can see what voicemail messages are available and listen to them right from the app. The users address book on the PBX is available through the app.
The installation uses a 2D code from the PBX or a link in the invitation email; entering a username and password is not necessary. The app needs iOS 13 to run. The app works best with version 68 or 69 of the Vodia PBX.

Great

This app does a great job for your pbx. Simple

Can’t change presence in the app

Still testing it but not liking the fact that one cannot change presence Available/Away status from the App. There is a way to set DND status but no ability to manage presence. Is this something users can expect soon?

Presence is a long story. For example, what is the presence state if you are on a call, and what if you are on DND. Our experience is that users don't want to spend much time on "programming" their presence state and they just want a quick DND button, especially on a mobile device.

Because of this we have "rich" DND where you can specify a duration and a reason with the DND like "break", "holiday", or something on your own. On the iOS app we did not include the reason because the pop-up is already pretty big with all the possible durations and the dialog would become huge. We believe that the duration of DND is very important because users tend to forget to turn it off and then miss calls for days...

With all that we have to keep in mind that we are still talking about a mobile app. Maybe the easiest solution would be a simple button that logs the user into the web interface on the browser, where all bells and whistles are available.

Bad connections

My phone calls cut in and out and people say they are not able to hear me. this only happens when using the app not regular phone calls through my phone.

The app depends on the internet protocol (VoIP = voice over internet protocol), while regular phone calls are done using switched networks. If the internet is bad, it will be hard to have a regular conversation.
