Using celitoMobile Web Softphone
This feature is disabled by default. Please contact celito support to have it enabled on your account.
Your web browser, computer, firewall, internet, and more can all impact how well the celitoMobile Web softphone works for you. This software is provided as-is. For this reason, 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 Web is a softphone built-in to the celitoVoice web portal that allows you to make and receive phone calls, modify your answer rules, listen to voicemails, and more.

- A microphone and speakers
- An actual headset rather than using a built-in microphone like from a webcam is recommended. Can be a USB headset or bluetooth, depending on what your computer supports.
- The softphone will not register without a microphone
- A modern browser that supports WebRTC (Chrome or Firefox)
Launching
- Your web browser will likely prompt you to approve microphone access
