Support for Apple iOS CallKit for UC-One
bMobile now delivers support for Apple iOS CallKit for UC-One mobile apps,
providing business users with a native user experience for unified
communications apps on their iOS device. Tightly integrating UC capabilities
with the native iPhone user interface offers a superior mobile experience that
delivers calling and advanced business features directly from the iPhone. As a
result, business users are able to:
* Answer a UC-One call with a single swipe when their iPhone is locked
* Prioritize between a UC-One VoIP call and an incoming native call received
on their iPhone
* Use UC-One mid-call services such as hold, transfer and conference while on
an iPhone
* Make a UC-One call directly from their iPhone's contact list
"BroadSoft remains focused on designing features and applications that make it
easier for workers to be productive while mobile," said Scott Hoffpauir, chief
technology officer, BroadSoft. "With our bMobile capabilities, BroadSoft
delivers a superior and more native mobile user experience with embedded multi-
device, multi-identity advanced business calling features and capabilities."
Last year, a number of mobile operators integrated their mobile-first solutions
with the BroadSoft Business BroadWorks® platform including Verizon One
Talk and Vodafone One Net Business. bMobile capabilities ensure business owners
and their employees have a true mobile-first communications solution, spanning
smartphones, desk phones and tablets, allowing them to do business anywhere and
most importantly stay connected to their customers wherever they are located.
