celitoMobile Android Softphone

Your phone, phone provider, 3rd party applications, firewall, internet, and more can all impact how well the celitoMobile softphone works for you. This software is provided as-is. celito's troubleshooting of softphone issues that are specific to your setup will be limited. A softphone should never be used as a replacement for a physical phone, especially if phones are a critical part of your business.

celitoMobile Android is a softphone that allows you to make and receive phone calls, modify your answer rules, listen to voicemails, and more on your Android device.

Troubleshooting

Can't Make Outbound Calls

  • Verify the softphone is registered
  • Verify that you can dial the number you're trying to call from your normal desk phone
  • Verify your firewall settings

Can't Receive Inbound Calls

  • Verify the softphone is registered
  • Verify that your answer rules are set to ring the softphone on incoming calls
    • Softphone extension is always [4-digit-extension]m. Example: 1001m
  • Verify your firewall settings
  • Some phones and carriers simply can't receive inbound phone calls, especially when the app is running in the background. In those cases you may not be able to receive inbound calls directly to the softphone.
    • As a workaround, you can configure your Answer Rules to sim ring to your actual cell phone number
