Making and Receiving Calls with the Mobile App

The AVOXI Mobile App gives users the ability to use their AVOXI webphone on the go, giving them the freedom to make and receive calls regardless of their location.  Available to all License holders at no additional cost, the app is designed to give remote workers flexibility while ensuring they never miss a call. 

How does it Work? 

The simple, yet intuitive and easy-to-use application is downloadable from the App Store or Google Play and is compatible with iOS and Android.  Users with an AVOXI license can simply download and instantly make inbound and outbound calls through their AVOXI webphone directly from their mobile device without the need to log into their AVOXI browser.

Info

Show Team Name in Caller ID

As an agent who is part of multiple teams, it is important to know which team a call is coming from.
