Laggy push notifications and bad UI

M Local

Push notifications are a bit laggy, I often loose calls due to caller hang up. Both the UI and the overall experience while using this app are pretty bad. I also experience a giant lag right after answering calls (probably waiting for the connection to establish). Too expensive for what it delivers.


I paid 20$ and still get ads!!

Prefect

They now show an icon for a totally different product, a wifi finder permanenty in the title bar! You can't hide it! If you tap it, they want to sell you a subscription! This is absolutely unacceptable for an expensive paid business app!


Reliable incoming calls, horrendous call quality

adamjb14

Groundwire's PUSH service is the most reliable I've found to receive calls on my iPhone, but the call quality of incoming and outgoing call is absolutely terrible. I have HD voice enabled, and calls are always garbled and have a constant background noise. This isn't a problem on any other softphone app of headphone I've used.


Best VoIP App I've Found

BP407

I tried a bunch of VoIP apps to use with our Avaya IP Office phone system. None of the others worked well except for this one. It's reliable and easy to use. The setup takes some time to get used to since it's not the most clear-cut user interface, sometimes having to change settings in multiple spots. My only wish (hence the four star instead of five) is being able to push on a button and re-attempt the connection to the server. For instance, if I launch before I start my VPN to get onto my network, I have to exit out, then re-launch to get it to try to re-connect again. A quick "refresh" of the connection type of button would solve this issue. Still, even with this quirk, it's a solid buy and the best app of its kind in the app store.

Not the best

mark98201

Configuration is more difficult than other commercial SIP clients. Too many steps on too many screens to make it work with most SIP service providers. The default settings are wrong.


Works better than any other VOIP app

fshultz

I've tried almost all of the other apps available today for VOIP for a hosted FreePBX server and nothing has worked consistently unless I've left the app open in the foreground. Groundwire allows you to do other things on your phone and alerts you to incoming calls with a notification whether it's in the foreground or not. Very solid app and very well done. Worth the money if you need a mobile SIP solution.


Elegant performance, strong support

Gib Henry

Apple’s built-in Phone app should take a leaf from this elegant software! With “raise-to-speak,” a call is on speaker as long as you hold the phone in front of you, and switches to normal private earpiece when you raise it to your ear, and vice-versa. Finger-sized buttons with preferred contacts’ pictures make calling a breeze. Yes, with great power comes some complexity, with settings scattered all over the place, but there are presets for many providers world-wide (hundreds?), including my American and Italian VoIP providers. If you don’t have a preset, be sure you have ONLY the provider’s supported codecs active, and in their preferred order. Support is spectacularly on-target. Send in a log, and they’ll diagnose the problem and suggest a setting change to get you talking again. Most important, though is performance, where Groundwire shines. Anticipating a trip to Ecuador, I bit the bullet and bought the in-app G.729 codec—costs as much as Groundwire itself, but it provided landline-quality connections throughout the trip. On cellular data, you have to answer incoming calls quickly, though, because by the time the push locates and gets to the iPhone, launches Groundwire, and activates the ringer, the call might have reached enough rings to go to voicemail; often in weak signal areas I have to call back, so I’ve increased the time/rings before VM.


Awesome app.

D.Rob

This is a great, reliable, and easy to use app. I had 10 other SIP apps downloaded and was testing them out, after I used this one for a couple days, deleted all the others. This is the only one that met my expectations. Great app, no problems so far, lots of great options, would defenatly recommend it if you're looking for an SIP client.
