Voicemail and Push Notifications Setup for Groundwire

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.
