ipbx home screen

As of version 2.0.3 ipbx has an Apple iPhone™ web interface. The iPhone web interface allows users to access call logs, voicemail, conferencing and call forwarding on the go. Users login to the interface using the same credentials as for the End User Panel. So if you are using password authentication instead of PIN authentication, use your password.

This feature requires that Unified Voicemail is setup for the user account/mailbox. You will need to specify your iPhone's phone number (mobile/cell number) as default callback number for most features to work properly.

Go to the user's voicemail settings and add a permissioned number and select it as primary.

Note that this interface can also be used when outside of cell coverage using WiFi, except for callbacks.

This is not a VoIP client, but rather an iPhone enabled End User panel - it will work anywhere you have basic data and voice coverage
