m (Get NetworkManager to takeover control of /etc/resolv.conf)
 
(2 intermediate revisions by the same user not shown)
* Ekiga (Linux)
* Linphone 4.0.1 (Android)
* Twinkle (Linux) - although currently (Dec 2018) there's a problem with SRV records when using systemd-resolved (on Ubuntu and Debian at least). Need to do
systemctl stop systemd-resolved
* Voipfone Softphone (Android) deserves a mention. It needs an account with voipfone.co.uk, but you can signup and try for free. Their softphone app just works out of the box for calling SIP URIs.
systemctl disable systemd-resolved
systemctl mask systemd-resolved
add the line
dns=default
to the ''main'' section of ''/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf''
and then
rm /etc/resolv.conf
to get NetworkManager to take over control of resolving.
 
* Voipfone Softphone (Android) deserves a mention. It needs an account with voipfone.co.uk, but you can signup and try for free. Their softphone app just works out of the box for calling SIP URIs - provided they don't have numeric usernames: so you can call AAISP's office (e.g. support@aa.net.uk) but you can't call sip:<number>@host (it'll call the number direct instead).
