New Softphone Versions Release Notes - January 2022

Release notes on the new GreenLink Softphone Versions for Android, IOS, Windows, and Mac OS.


Android 6.6.3 

New Menu for Settings and Logging out

This version introduces a new menu at the top left corner, so the user's Presence, Settings, Exit, and Log Out options can be accessed from anywhere in the app.
 

  • Improved permission handling on Android 11+. The app now asks for microphone permission when needed after a user taps Deny more than once. This improvement helps users who accidentally deny microphone permission without realizing it is required for a phone call.
  • There have been improvements to the overall stability and performance, such as:
    • A Chromebook user could not place calls.
    • Notifications on Samsung Edge devices.

iOS 6.6.3

New Menu for Settings and Logging out

This version introduces a new menu at the top left corner, so the user's Presence, Settings, Exit, and Log Out options can be accessed from anywhere in the app.

  • The Contacts tab uses icons instead of labels for each segment, such as Contacts, Roster, Favorites, and Directory.
  • iOS 15 Support.
  • There have been improvements to the overall stability and performance, such as:
    • Fixed an issue where the first incoming call failed after the app was terminated by OS in the background.
    • Fixed background color contrast for the dark mode.

Windows 6.5.2

  • Added Windows 11 support.
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 is now required (previously 4.6.2).
  • Updates to the latest Jabra SDK.
  • Outlook contacts now remain displayed when an Internet connection is unavailable on the device.
  • Fixed an issue where an embedded browser displays a blank page until the page is resized; pages now appear properly.
