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.

Ports to open: Ports used by Wildix services.

Use of App outside the office network: the first time you make a login from the local network, the PBX sends the settings of the public network to the application (the same for connection from the public IP). The app tries to connect using the first IP and if it fails, it moves to the second one, thus ensuring the connection both when you are in or outside the office network.

...

  • WMS version 4.0X or higher
  • Android OS: 5.0 or higher starting from Android app version 5.00.26  (Android 4.0 is still compatible with version lower than 5.00.26)

Push notifications

Thanks to push notifications, the app no longer needs to run all the time as 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.
