Poor call quality

  • Use Wi‑Fi with a strong signal when possible.
  • Avoid congested networks (hotels, cafes) for important calls.
  • Watch the Good / Fair / Poor badge during calls — move if quality drops.
  • Close other apps using bandwidth.

Video call issues

  • Grant camera permission in system settings.
  • Enable video self-view in Settings if you cannot see yourself.
  • Use Pause video if bandwidth is low, then resume when stable.
  • Switch camera with the flip icon if one camera fails.

QR code login fails

  • Ensure the QR code is from your own deployment email.
  • Improve lighting and hold the camera steady.
  • Try scanning from a screenshot in your gallery.
  • Request a new deployment email from IT if the code expired.

Transfer or conference fails

  • Confirm green registration before starting.
  • For attended transfer, ensure the recipient answers.
  • For conference, both calls must be connected before Merge.
  • Ask IT whether three-way calling is enabled on your extension.

Chat not working

  • Feature may not be enabled — contact your administrator.
  • Update configuration in Settings.
  • Check you are logged in with the correct account.

App crashes or freezes

  1. Update Cloud Softphone from the App Store or Play Store.
  2. Restart your phone.
  3. Reinstall the app and sign in again with your QR code or credentials.

Before reinstalling
