Enhancements Coming for New Version of iOS App v14

Written by George Bardissi | Jul 3, 2015 6:37:00 AM

When BVoIP completes the validation of 3CX v14 and goes through our beta test we will provide customers the option to migrate their sytems to the new phone system version.

There are some much welcome enhancements in the iOS app for Apple devices.

Here is a list of some of the things you can look forward to:

One of the coolest new features of the new iOS client is that it basically works almost like a regular GSM call. What does that mean? The client fully supports Apple’s new VoIP Push (requires iOS 8.1) which wakes up the phone & 3CXPhone when a call is coming in, so that you can answer the call immediately. This also consumes less battery.

Answer calls directly from your lock screen! Don’t waste time trying to unlock your phone in order to answer a call. Just swipe the screen and answer! Your incoming 3CXPhone calls also ring like a regular phone call too.

3CXPhone for iOS is a complete rewrite that drastically improves our support for iPhones and iPads:

  • Completely new SIP engine
  • INTEGRATED TUNNEL
  • Starts up much faster
  • Auto detects location – No need to set out of office or in office
  • Wakes up phone and allows immediate pick up of call
  • Improved PUSH support – using Apple VoIP Push, 3CX PUSH messages get priority over others.
  • Drastically reduced battery usage
  • Improved reliability and sound quality
  • Inclusion of new call history in the clients
  • Ability to send welcome email from client
  • Unsupported message if a v14 client talks to a v12 PBX
  • Removed DND Button
  • Profiles now are named Available, Away Do Not Disturb, Lunch, Business Trip
  • Easier to provision using 1 FQDN
