Use Blueface on your Android

Android

You can use Blueface on your Android device to call and send SMS and hence benefit from our discounted rates direcly on your mobile phone.

In order to provide you with these extra services, Blueface has built some partnerships with application developers/providers, as you can see below.

Please remember that if you provide your Blueface credentials to a third party, you do so at your own risk.

If you need help or advise on any on these, do check out our forum: Android discussions.

Make sure that you do not have the same SIP account registered on two devices as it could cause various problems. To add another SIP account use The ToolBox: you will be able to add a 2nd SIP account to use with CSIPSimple or Fring for example.

If you are not a Blueface customer, you can learn more about us on this website. We have a broad range of solutions for SMEs and residential customers. You can use our Free Trial if you want to give CSIPSimple a go.
