“Turn your phone (or laptop) into a fully-featured SIP phone… and yes, it’s cooler than it sounds.”
Let’s get you calling with Bitcall and Zoiper — one of the most popular softphone apps on the planet.
🔸 Before You Begin
Make sure you’ve got:
✅ A Bitcall account
✅ Your Bitcall SIP account (it is created for you when you sign up)
✅ Your SIP credentials (username, password, domain)
✅ Internet (WiFi/4G/5G — no telepathy required… yet)
⚠️ If you’re using IP Authentication, skip the password part and make sure your IP is whitelisted in Bitcall.
📱 Section 1: Zoiper on
Android
Download Zoiper from the Play Store
Open the app → Tap “Create an account” or “Add account”
Enter your SIP credentials:
Username: your-bitcall-username Password: your-SIP-password Domain: gateway.bitcall.io
Tap Next, then select SIP UDP
(Or SIP TCP/TLS if you want encrypted calls)
Zoiper will test the connection. If all goes well, you’ll see a green check.
Done! You should see a “Registered” status at the top.
📱 Section 2: Zoiper on
iOS (iPhone)
Download from the App Store
Launch the app → Tap “Settings” → “Accounts” → “+”
Then select SIP Account
Fill in your SIP info:
Account Name: Bitcall User: your-bitcall-username Password: your-SIP-password Domain: gateway.bitcall.io
Go to Advanced and make sure:
Transport: UDP (default), or TCP/TLS if preferred
Auth Username: same as SIP username
Tap Save, then go back. You should see Registered status.
🖥️ Section 3: Zoiper on
Windows/macOS (Desktop)
Download Zoiper 5
Launch the app → Click “Create a new account”
Enter:
User@domain: [email protected] Password: your-SIP-password
Skip auto-configuration if prompted → Click Manual Settings
Protocol: SIP
Transport: UDP (or TCP/TLS if needed)
Save and continue — your status should now show as Registered
🔄 Troubleshooting Tips
Issue | Fix |
“Registration failed” | Double-check username, password, and domain |
Can’t hear audio | Check device mic/speaker permissions and codecs |
Still failing on mobile | Try switching transport (UDP → TCP) or use SIP IP: 188.34.143.144 |
Using IP Auth | Leave password blank, make sure your IP is added in Bitcall |
Behind firewall/NAT? | Try enabling STUN in Zoiper settings |
🧠 TL;DR Recap
✅ Use gateway.bitcall.io as your SIP domain
✅ Register with your SIP username + password (or use IP Auth)
✅ Choose UDP, TCP, or TLS transport
✅ Use Zoiper on iOS, Android, Windows, or macOS
✅ Registration = Success = Time to call!
