How do I make a call with the mobile app?

You can make calls with your Ooma Office for WeWork mobile app in several different ways. Outbound calls will use your Ooma Office phone number as the caller-ID number.

Notes about calling from an iPod Touch: The current generation of the iPod Touch has a built-in microphone and can be used as a speakerphone, but this feature is absent in previous generations. If you have an older model of iPod Touch you must use a headset with a microphone to make and receive phone calls.

Notes about calling from an iPad: The iPad does have a built-in microphone, so it can be used as a speakerphone. You can also choose to plug in a headset with a built-in microphone for private conversations.
