SIP Clients
Android
- Built-in SIP client: Modern Android phones have a SIP client built into them. Go to Phone → Settings → Calls → Calling accounts → SIP accounts to turn this on. Pros: integrates with native dialler. Cons: feature-poor.
- CSipSimple is open source and feature-rich, but has compatibility issues with newer Android versions.
- Linphone is an open source feature-rich SIP client.
iOS
On iOS you will have to install an app. Reddit has a few suggestions for apps.
The following seem to be most commonly suggested as they use a push service and don't drain the battery. Both are paid apps.
Bria. 14 day free trial, with monthly or annual subscription (A$1.49/month, A$14.99/y)
Groundwire. A$14.99 once off fee.
Linux
