Acrobits Softphone - a convenient and beautiful SIP-client for iPhone

Internet denser part of our lives. Fewer still cities that are not familiar with the concept of broadband Internet. A metropolis already enveloped all Wi-Fi networks. And it becomes something familiar, see the Wi-Fi Zone stickers in cafes, business centers and just "catch net" on the street. Naturally this possibility can not be missed, which would reduce their costs for long-distance and international calls.
Now it is little surprise anyone Skype calls from your mobile device to a regular phone, and this program is known for a long time the main part of our readers. We are now about something else. I would like in the next pair of triple-materials, to talk about alternative ways of using VoIP—SIP telephony on the iPhone.
Acrobits Softphone - convenient and beautiful SIP-client for the iPhone and IPod Touch with Russian interface. One of the main distinctive features of the application, it is possible to work with several SIP-operators and easy switching between them in one touch.
What else is worth noting:
Availability Push Notifications It allows you to be notified of an incoming call, the name and number of the caller, if the program is off. True if you are using a two-way sip-relationship that is still quite rare for Russia. However, some operators offer this service. When you receive a Push-notifications, you just click on it run thus the program and answer the call.
Call recording - an indispensable feature for journalists, businessmen, prankerov and paranoid. You can configure the recording of all conversations automatically, or just press the corresponding key during conversation.
VoIP over 3G - Ability to make calls without Wi-Fi from 3G / EDGE-network, if you are allowing traffic. It is worth noting, the call quality is quite decent (much depends on the sip-operator). Conveniently, the fact that this function can be disabled in the settings if you do not have unlimited 3G / EDGE internet, and what would happen to okaratsya call in the absence of Wi-Fi network.
Another of the interesting things: speech processing (Echo cancellation, microphone gain), the ability to set priorities codecs flexibly customized to your needs (for advanced users), the use of SIP Proxy and the VPN, support bluetooth-devices (headphones, headsets), work on iOS4 in the background, and more.
From the pleasant things: the ability to use any song from your iTunes music library as a ringtone.
The program interface is simple, intuitive, designed specifically for the iPhone. Program Control Panel has four main tabs:
Contacts showing all your entries from the corresponding iPhone program in standard form, with a convenient search by contact name or phone number. The ability to add dialed / incoming number in the address book of your iPhone.
keys - almost standard keypad for dialing. The exception is the availability of SIP button that we push for a sip-call. As well, in the settings, you can activate GSM button (sm.skrinshot 3) when clicked, you "bridge" to the standard dialer iPhone. The presence of this key can be considered "architectural excesses" on the default is off.
recent - here displays the most recent calls dialed, received and missed calls. The number of sets and the last call time. Just as in normal dialer.
Favorites - To speed dial. You can choose from the contact list, or fill in manually, attach a photo from your photo archive, add a color label. In the upper left of the screen is a button to switch provider. By clicking the drop down list of your uploaded accounts.
Set up accounts, you can by going to the Settings section (right button). It should be noted immediately that this button is only available on the tab "keys."
Configuring SIP-accounts simple. Turning on SIP-account tab, click + and select your operator from huge list proposed, or add your choosing "Normal SIP-Account". There is enough to write your login sip-provider system, password, and domain for the connection.
When you set up your network operator, so it is worth to take into account the specifics of the dial, as this parameter is very often is different for different service providers. And here again plus Acrobits Softphone is that they have provided such an opportunity.
The additional installation options SIP-billed "to replace the standard plus ..." the option which is set by your set of conditions.
For example, in SIPNET set comes without a plus - just the country code and number. EXAMPLE 74951234567. The operator VPBX24 - is 00. EXAMPLE 0074951234567. The operator PCTEL it is just 0. EXAMPLE 074,951,234,567.
Thus, creating a new operator, and specifying the settings, this option, we always get a hassle-free set of your standard address book, however, given that you originally write the address is correct, ie, an international standard "+ The country."
Perhaps in general terms, I told him everything about the program. I myself use it for a long time, and though she should not cheap, but it stands out among other usability, choosing Operator "on the fly", welcoming interface, two-way integration with phonebook and dialer standard iPhone.
Program solid five. For a considerable period of using my failures, and "missions" hardly noticed. Work comfortable. But the feedback the developers can not estimate - because it did not have something to complain about.
Main choose a convenient SIP-operators and set up an account and codecs. After that, you can not worry about its long-distance and international calls.
If you have any questions about the SIP-operator selection or setting up accounts - write. In the near future I will continue to acquaint you with the VoIP-telephony software for iPhone
Have a nice touch!
