RichardDCG Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 will the app be available on the Apple Watch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Well you get notifications on the watch, like new voicemail or text messages. As far as we can see, doing a call over the watch seems out of reach, at least we have not seen any VoIP app that uses the watch for actual talking.

Vodia PBX Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 Is any other VoIP app using this? My favorite VoIP apps so far seem not to support calls on the watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardDCG Posted April 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 I cant find any, but I'm not sure of the reasoning. Apple seem to be indicating that it is possible, not sure why no one is either trying or explaining why it wont work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Nobody wants to be the first to try a new API plus its debatable if you want to talk to your clients through your watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardDCG Posted April 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2023 there are times that we dont have a phone on us, but we always have a watch. There are also times where it would be easier to touch a button on your watch than dig your phone out of your pocket. I have taken mobile calls on my watch frequently, it would be handy to be abe to take Vodia calls as well.

Vodia PBX Posted April 21, 2023 Report Share Posted April 21, 2023 Would the watch VoIP call work without the phone being in Bluetooth distance? I would doubt it. I would assume the watch is from audio point of view just a Bluetooth speaker device. I have also taken calls on the watch, but the audio quality is given the hardware far inferior to the phone itself. I do it if the phone is too far away, e.g. another room. I agree there are some cases where taking a VoIP call on the watch would make sense, but I would say something in the 1-5% area of all calls.

RichardDCG Posted April 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 the watch does not need to be connected by Bluetooth to work, it's not just a speaker device. The audio quality is inferior to the phone, but is perfectly functional. I guess it is whether the option is firstly feasible and secondly popular enough to make it worthwhile rather than how many calls you and I may make.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffreyschneider Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 I just had a client ask for this as well. We are getting ready to convert them over from 3CX, and they use the 3CX app on Apple Watch fairly regularly. The 3CX app does allow for taking calls. The watch is also very useful in the field when you don't have an extra hand available to take calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not able to get it working with WhatsApp, seems 3CX is ahead of WhatsApp on the iWatch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
