Re: [Linphone-users] iOS PUSH notifications and Callcentic for inbound calls

[Julien Favre-Bulle]

Dear Sophie,

 

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to configure push notification of a third party SIP service in the stock version of Linphone.

 

Best regards,

 

Julien

Dear Julien,

Thank-you for explaining this to me.

 

How can I configure Linphone to use push notifications from my Callcentric.com sip account?

 

 

 Best, Sophie

Dear Sophie,

 

Thank you for your interest in Linphone.

 

Supporting push notifications has become compulsory since iOS 10 and on most recent Android phones to receive incoming calls and messages when the app is not active in foreground.

To wake up a VoIP app when an incoming call or an incoming message is received, the server must send a push notification request to Apple/Google's PN server. For security reasons, Apple/Google doesn't allow everybody to send push notifications to their servers. There are private keys and certificates to protect the whole process.

 

We have decided not to share Linphone’s push notification ID with third party services, and this is why the stock Linphone app can only receive push notifications sent from our sip.linphone.org service.

 

To verify that it is indeed technically possible to be notified of incoming calls when Linphone is closed or running in the background, you can create a sip.linphone.org account and configure it in the app.

Hi,

 

I read on this link that Linphone ios client could use PUSH notifications for inbound calls:-

https://www.linphone.org/features#:~:text=Since%20Linphone%20supports%20push%20notifications,or%20not%20in%20the%20foreground.

 

"Since Linphone supports push notifications from Apple and Google, you will be notified of incoming calls and text messages even if the Linphone app is inactive or not in the foreground. "

 

I have got a Callcentic account configured in Linphone on ios.

 

I enabled PUSH notifications, but incoming calls to the Callcentric number did not get through.

 

 Does anybody know how I can get the PUSH notifications to work?

 

Regards,

S
