Only downloadable from the crApp Store, so NOT RELEVANT. I really hate it when otherwise lovely freeware developers turn evil.

Version 1.0.2

Nice VoIP SIP client but only basic features. Native macOS application! I don't like the subscription to support development. Works well with my Fritz!Box and the Deutsche Telekom.

Version 1.4

Telephone is very handy. It is easy to call, the interface is user-friendly. It is very convenient to put on hold or transfer calls. Great for office work. The app is free but there's an option to buy a paid subscription for reasonable price. I like it.

Version 1.2

Beautifully minimalist, well designed, and has worked perfectly for me using my Phone Power account. Love the Contacts integration! For the additional 1/2 star the nerd in me would like to see connection info when I'm in a call. Of course call time, but also codec, packets in/out, bit rate in/out, and I'm sure there is a lot more that Alexei could come up with. Also, is there a way to add a plugin into contacts (like Skype does) so that one can make a Telephone call directly by clicking on a number in Contacts?

It would also be nice, when the text entered into the number/name field produces a list of matches, if one could move up and down that list with Emacs-like key bindings, ^p (up) and ^n (down), in addition to the arrow keys. And, is there a keypad functionality on this app? I can't navigate the stupid call trees (press 1 for Sales, ...).

Awesome minimalistic SIP VoIP app, I cannot wait for the iOS version for my iPad -- but it has to support Push Notifications to be useful, else you cannot get incoming call notifications. I would also like to see Push Notification support for the Mac version!

"Well, you can also download here: https://github.com/eofster/Telephone/downloads" Well, this lead to an older version (0.15.2 is 2 years old and supports PPC) You can instead download a newer version following the link below. However, latest available version at this time is 1.1.3 while is 1.1.4 on the App Store. Unfortunately App Store apps are updated before independent site apps. https://github.com/eofster/Telephone/releases

I am a new Mac user. I downloaded Telephone and configured my Voip account successfully since it shows me available. I tried to make calls but the problem i face is that my voice is not getting transmitted over the network nor i can hear the voice from the other side. I don't even hear the tone of the bell but the people whom i call do get bells. They answer the calls but we still can't communicate. I have tried many networks but the problems stays. Can you tell me what to do about it.

I had problems like those you describe until I turned off "ICE" in Preferences → Network. Telephone works very well for me since then.

I'm still trying to get my head around - that when you make a call .. neither of you can hear each other .. yet you're giving it 41/2 stars. lol
