Groundwire supports voicemail with features like notification alerts, a dedicated button for quick access from the keypad, and push notifications for new messages. However, this feature works only if your SIP provider offers voicemail services.
Important
- Ensure your SIP provider offers voicemail for this feature to work.
- Acrobits Softphone does not support voicemail.
Groundwire has several voicemail features:
- SIP voicemail notification
- A programmable voicemail button for direct access from the Keypad tab
- Push notification for voicemail.
Voicemail Notification
Voicemail notification is enabled by default in Groundwire. If your provider supports this feature and when you have voicemail messages, the application displays the number of waiting messages next to the SIP account icon at the top left screen when you open Groundwire.
