SMS Related
In order to use the App for SMS purposes you'll need to make some adjustments for compatibility with how our SMS Through SIP feature works. The steps are the following:
1. Go to "Settings > Accounts > [voip.ms account] > Advanced Settings" 2. Enable "Simple" under "Messaging" 3. Disable "Delivery Notifications" which sends messages as "Message/CPIM". This option only appears after "Simple" is enabled.
Known Issues
For Android it's been found that having "Call Integration" can cause audio issues. This can be resolved by heading in the app to:
-Preferences > Call Integration, set as disabled & save.
