Hello,
So, I just got the new that Voip.ms now has its own softphone? It looks identical to Groundwire/Acrobits. Is it a “white label” edition of it and does it have all the features of Groundwire? The screen shots look like so. 
Kind regards,
Alexandre
That’s interesting. I like Groundwire. But it doesn’t work with MMS images. Their support says the SIP protocol doesn’t support it. I wonder if the new office VoIP.ms softphone app works with images.
It’s a crippled version of Groundwire. It allows only one SIP account. The usual red / green indicator for SIP registration is absent.
VOIP.MS could have chosen an app that does MMS. Instead, they got one that does nothing new. The app is free, yet still feels overpriced.
I like VOIP.MS overall, but the company has a goofy side. This is the latest example of goofy. Here’s how I imagine the company meeting went: “I think that we should get a softphone app that does nothing new at all.” “Great idea, D.R. Your genius knows no bounds.”
Instead, I’ll use the full-feaured Groundwire that I happily paid $10 for.
Couldn’t disagree more. The VoIP.ms Softphone does exactly what it’s supposed to do and does it well. It’s the perfect complement to tablets with a data-only SIM that blocks phone calls. Calls through the VoIP.ms app work flawlessly. What is it about free that you find disappointing?
Sorry to be hijacking, but how did you create your post? I just signed up and don’t see how. I’m using Firefox on Android.
The softphone does not work with MMS. SMS only. However voip.ms has an SMS portal website which works with both SMS and MMS.
Groundwire doesn’t work with MMS either. Their support told me SIP doesn’t support MMS.
