Before using the app

Requirements

To use this application, you must be a user of a Wildix system and have fast internet connection that doesn’t block VoIP traffic.

...

- WMS version 3.8x/ 4.01
- Android OS: 4.0 or higher

Push notifications

Thanks to push notifications, the app no longer needs to run all the time. Starting from WMS version 3.86, it automatically disconnects from SIP / Presence server in background which helps to improve battery usage. If you receive a call / a chat, the app sends you a notification, even in case it was closed.

To deactivate access to Presence and SIP server and stop receiving notifications, you can set your user status to Offline or log out from the app. Read the chapters Status and Log out for more info.


Note
Note: when the app disconnects from SIP / Presence server, the Android device disappears from the list of active devices in Wildix Collaboration interface. Once the application wakes up, it appears again in the list of registered devices.
