Changelog
All of the updates and changes will be recorded in the changelog.

Version 2.41.0
Improved
- Added performance improvements in connecting to different services (e.g. for temporary redirect and user availability)
Fixes
- Voicemail names were not displayed properly in temporary redirect descriptions
Version 2.40.0
Improved
- The web socket for colleague availability now uses a reconnect strategy where the initial reconnect happens faster but then takes more time in between reconnect attempts.
- The logs that are sent to remote logging are now in the JSON format.
- When the webphone will install the latest version in the background, when the webphone is restarted it will always use the latest version. While the webphone is in use it will still show the update button.

- A few missing German translations have been added.
Version 2.39.0
Improved
- The Webphone is now also available in German.
Version 2.38.5
Fixed
- Recent calls and voicemails were not shown anymore because of the recent changes in retrieving data from the APIs
Version 2.38.4
Fixed
- For customers with more than 100 colleagues and/ or voipaccounts every account is retrieved from the API.
Version 2.38.2
Fixed
- Webphones will not all reconnect at the same time to the Websocket.
Version 2.38.0
Improved
- Updated the service we use for remote logging, this is now an on-premise (previously a 3rd-party) solution so we have better control of the data that is collected.
Version 2.37.2
Improved
- Made improvements to the Websocket that handles the colleague updates.
Version 2.37.1
Fixed
- A colleagues name was unknown when you would get a call from a colleague. We have fixed it by displaying the voipaccount description as the name on a call (e.g Anne Webphone).
- We are doing less API requests to one of our endpoints. It was putting too much load on the servers.
- We are closing a websocket on logout, we used to try to reconnect.
Version 2.37.0
Added
- The Webphone will have a new feature called User Availability that will greatly improve the user experience. Instead of seeing only VoIP accounts, users will now see colleagues.
To enhance the user experience, new sections have been created including favorites, colleagues, accounts, and contacts. It will clear up the dialer view significantly. VoIP accounts that don’t have a user connected will still be shown, and their availability will also still be shown.
Improved
- When a Temporary Redirect has been set in the Vialer mobile app with a custom end time, this custom end time will now also be reflected in the Webphone. Setting a custom end date and time from the Webphone will be added in a future update.
Version 2.36.2
Removed
- Removed support email for the Voys webphone on the “contact us” page.
Version 2.34.0
Added
- You can now configure a Temporary Redirect, redirecting all calls for your organization to voicemail.
- A banner will be displayed when your organization has a Temporary Redirect active.
Version 2.32.3
Improved
- The reliability of the Do Not Disturb status. If you turned Do Not Disturb on or off, this was not always sent correctly. As a result, the wrong status (of colleagues) was displayed.
Version 2.32.1
Improved
- Finding a contact. It will be shown once the contact has been fully loaded.
Version 2.31.1
Improved
- Loading the Contacts page with many contacts by increasing the network timeout.
Version 2.31.0
Improved
- You can now record an ongoing call by pressing *2 in the keypad in the Webphone. After pressing *2, a sound plays to let you know the recording started. Only the audio after entering *2 will be recorded and the audio recording can be downloaded in the portal.
Version 2.30.0
Fixed
- Stopped trying to translate texts that are not translatable such as the names of audio devices.
Version 2.29.0
Fixed
- When a variable caller name was present in a dial plan, it replaced the contact name or phone number in the Webphone’s call notifications. From now on, it shows the variable caller name in front of a contact name or phone number when set as ‘Prefix’ in the dial plan.
Version 2.28.0
Fixed
- In some cases, it was not possible to enter a correct passcode correctly and join a conference call. When you press a number on your physical keyboard or the keypad of the Webphone, DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequency) signals are sent to make this possible. These signals were sent immediately, but from now on there will be a one-second wait until after your last input. This makes it possible to enter multiple numbers and join a conference call again. This change doesn’t affect any other situations where DTMF is used, such as choosing an option in a call menu (also known as IVR).
Version 2.27.0
Improved
- In some situations, the Recent page showed incorrect information. The complex logic that made it possible to display this information has been replaced by one centralized system. This system makes it easier to display the correct and the same information in both the Webphone and the mobile app.
Added
- An incoming call answered elsewhere now shows the name of the person that picked up the phone.
- A test call feature. When you call extension #321 in the Webphone, a Dutch test call is set up: You will hear a short audio message explaining the test call; You leave a message after the beep, you have five seconds to record a message; You will hear another beep and the recorded message is played back to you; Finally, there is a closing message and the conversation ends automatically.
A test call can be used to check whether everything is set up correctly or if you experience problems with your call audio quality. The test call extension, #321, can also be reached from a desk phone or the mobile app.
Version 2.26.1
Fixed
- The status of colleagues, also known as Busy Lamp Field (BLF), displayed incorrect information if the Webphone was active for more than an hour. Thanks to this fix, problems with the BLF showing the incorrect status are likely resolved. If you still encounter problems with BLF after this update, please let us know via the feedback form.
Version 2.26.0
Fixed
- The DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequency) signals now play for a longer period of time. There should no longer be any issues when making a choice by pressing a number in a call menu (IVR).
Version 2.25.0
Fixed
- The user preferences link on the Settings page now redirects to the correct page in your VoIP platform.
Added
- A troubleshooting page to check if your browser notifications are working correctly. This page can be accessed by navigating to /troubleshooting.
Version 2.24.0
Fixed
- An issue caused the Webphone to stop working unless you removed your browser cookies. The issue has been resolved, but it might be that you need to remove your browser cookies once more after updating. An IndexedDB error that caused the webphone to break and only clearing the cache would help. You might need to do it one more time but then it should be working again.
- The call button on a contact card not calling the right number.
Improved
- The Transfer button to open the transfer view will now be disabled after opening the view to prevent possible confusion on how to complete the transfer.
- The contacts that you’ve set as your favorites, are now saved to your user account. This means that they will not be lost when you delete your browser cookies.
- Your dark mode setting is also saved to your user account.
- Your preference for remote logging is also saved like your favorites and dark mode setting. An extra advantage of these settings being linked to your user account, is that your settings will be loaded if you would log into the Webphone with the same user account on a different computer.
- Your favorites will now be saved on your user which means clearing the cache will no longer delete your favorites.
- Your dark mode setting will now be saved on your user which means clearing the cache will no longer reset your dark mode setting.
- If you enable remote logging it will now be saved on your user so that clearing the cache will not reset your remote logging setting.
Version 2.23.0
Fixed
- Settings that are saved locally, such as your microphone and headset, are no longer cleared when you log out.
Version 2.22.0
Improved
- The status of your colleagues on the Dialer and Contacts pages. The status, also known as Busy Lamp Field (or BLF), did not always display the correct information. The Webphone no longer sends unnecessary signals when you receive a call while Do Not Disturb is enabled. This reduces the chance of the incorrect status being displayed.
Version 2.21.0
Removed
- The ‘Are you sure you want to leave?’ browser modal is no longer visible after you’ve logged out and want to close the page.
Fixed
- The Webphone would not show notifications in the bottom-right corner anymore when connecting or disconnecting your microphone and/or headset. The notifications are back, unless you’ve disabled them on the Settings page.
- The mute button appeared to not be active when activating it, navigating to a different page and back while in a call. This has been resolved.
- An issue where your settings were not loaded correctly after logging in.
- An issue where the default transfer method was not selected after clicking the Transfer button on the Ongoing calls page.
Improved
- Favorites are now also sorted alphabetically, just like the other contacts.
- Notifications visible in the bottom-right will now be translated correctly when switching between languages.
Version 2.20.0
Fixed
- An issue where the name and email address of the previous logged in user were visible in the top-left.
Improved
- It’s no longer possible to click the Log out button accidentally and log out when in an active call.
Added
- An option to the Settings page that prevents your computer from going into sleep mode when the Webphone is visible on your screen.
Version 2.19.0
Removed
- The sounds that were played when using the keypad on the Dialer page. Clicking the numbers played sounds, but no DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequency) signals were sent to the ongoing call. This could be confusing as the numbers entered seemed to affect the ongoing call, e.g. when choosing an option in a call menu (IVR), but in reality it didn’t do anything.
- The sounds that were played when using the keypad during a transfer. The keypad (the clickable numbers located under the keypad button) on the Dialer page and during a transfer is only used to search for a contact or to enter a phone number.
Improved
- Validating and correcting the entered phone number for contacts. If you enter a phone number that contains special characters or spaces, the Webphone will try to correct it to a correct phone number. If it still fails to save, it displays a message to help you resolve the error.
Added
- A message on the Dialer page during an active call. This contains a reference to the Ongoing calls page if you want to use the keypad to choose an option in a call menu (IVR) or to use extensions.
- Visual feedback to the sound check buttons. When you click the button, a “Playing sound” message appears next to your mouse cursor.
Version 2.18.0
Fixed
- The status of your colleagues on the Dialer and Contacts pages. The status, also known as Busy Lamp Field (or BLF), did not always display the correct information. Whether someone is available, busy, ringing, or has their status set to do not disturb, should now be updated correctly and almost instantly.
Improved
- The buttons on the Ongoing calls page. It is now clearer which option is activated, i.e. mute microphone and transfer call, and what is going to happen when you click the button again to deactivate it.
Version 2.17.0
Improved
- The phone number field when adding or editing a contact. The Webphone is a lot more helpful when copying-and-pasting phone numbers from other sources, i.e. an address book on your PC or Mac. Instead of showing an error message, the Webphone will automatically remove any special characters or spaces that cannot be saved.
Version 2.16.0
Removed
- Some messages and blocking elements when the Webphone detected incorrect firewall or network settings.
Fixed
- The alignment of icons when displaying a longer name on the Recents page.
- The message on the Dialer page when there is no permission given to use the microphone. This message loads correctly again when this browser permission is denied or blocked. Without this microphone permission, it is not possible to make or receive calls using the Webphone.
Improved
- The situation when the Webphone detected incorrect firewall settings. A message is still shown that advises to check the (local) network settings, but it is possible to call and use other functionalities. This makes it possible to access the Webphone while using Remote Desk Services (RDS).
- The alignment of the Ongoing calls page. Depending on the window size of the Webphone, the name of the caller is now fully visible. The caller name, phone number, and call status are also better aligned when using smaller window sizes.
Version 2.15.1
Fixed
- An error on a contact page when trying to add or edit 0800 phone numbers.
Version 2.15.0
Added
- The option to enable remote logging in the feedback form. This makes it easier to detect possible issues and problems. This option won’t be visible if it’s already enabled on the Settings page.
- Even more visual detail on clickable buttons and elements. This makes it even more clear that something is clickable once you hover over it with your mouse. This has been added to the Do Not Disturb button, the contacts on the Dialer page, the Recents page, and to a couple other buttons.
Version 2.14.0
Removed
- Introduction and explanation of the contact book functionality on the Contacts page. This was only visible on the first time visit. The feature is now an essential part of the Webphone and no longer needs an introduction.
Added
- A button on the Recents page to add a phone number from a recent call to a new contact.
Version 2.13.0
Improved
- Enabling Do Not Disturb during an incoming call. If the DND button is clicked while receiving a call, the call will be rejected. This will stop the ringing and the browser notification will disappear. The call then continues in the call group and/or the dial plan as usual.
- The loading time of the webphone. Startup takes almost two seconds less time, depending on your internet connection.
- Text on several pages. The Webphone is now being referred to as “the Webphone” instead of just “Webphone”.
Added
- A message which asks for an opinion about the Webphone. After three calls, a message asks to give the Webphone a rating between 1 and 5 stars. We are very curious about your opinion and any additional feedback!
- An ‘Install the Webphone’ section on the Settings page. This section explains why it is useful to install the Webphone and shows an install button if it is not already installed.
Version 2.12.0
Fixed
- An issue where some users encountered a warning about their firewall settings being incorrect, while they were set correctly.
Improved
- Readability of dropdown menus with dark mode enabled. For Windows users the options on the Settings page were not readable.
- Colors of the Webphone’s logo and name when dark mode is enabled. The logo and text now have a clear white color on a dark background on the Log in and Contact us pages.
Version 2.11.2
Fixed
- An issue where some users were unable to log in.
Improved
- The styling of an incoming and outgoing call. When setting up a new call or receiving a call, it now looks the same as a call on the Ongoing calls page.
Version 2.11.1
Fixed
- If you were not logged in, the settings were not loaded. This caused the Webphone to stop booting at all.
Version 2.11.0
Improved
- The contacts were loaded on every single page, even though they were not visible on every page. By optimizing this process and only loading contacts when necessary, navigating between different pages in the Webphone is a bit faster with less loading time. The contacts are temporarily stored in the browser to improve this even more. Aside from a speed improvement, this also makes it possible to continue making and receiving calls when, in the rare occasion, the Webphone is unable to load the contacts.
Version 2.10.0
Fixed
- A microphone permission issue in Firefox which blocked and disabled your microphone automatically.
- An issue where default settings were not always set automatically when using the Webphone for the first time or after deleting browser cookies. This could lead to situations where no sound could be heard during a conversation.
Improved
- The visibility of buttons that are (temporarily) unavailable. They were hidden in the Webphone, but now show as unavailable buttons in a disabled state. For example: on some pages the call buttons are not available if there is a network problem.
Version 2.9.0
Added
- Your settings in the Webphone are now linked to your user account. If you start using the Webphone on another computer or if the cookies in your browser are removed, the last known settings will be loaded.
Version 2.8.1
Removed
- The call button that appeared while hovering over a contact in transfer view. By clicking this button it was possible to set up a new call, which was confusing as you’ll most likely wanted to transfer to that contact instead of calling them.
Version 2.8.0
Fixed
- A message bubble on the Contacts page to introduce the contact book feature would remain visible after closing the message.
- The problem where only an error message was displayed in the Safari browser. The webphone will now load correctly, but it is not yet possible to use Safari for a fully functional Webphone.
- A situation where the Webphone sent a temporary unavailable tone instead of a busy tone. When you’re in a call and receive an incoming call, the caller will now receive and hear the correct busy tone instead of the temporarily unavailable tone.
Improved
- The Contacts page will no longer completely refresh every 40 seconds, but only when a (new) contact has been added or edited.
- A situation where a call would end when you opened the Webphone twice and clicked ‘Continue’. When opening a second window or tab of the Webphone while in an active call, it is no longer possible to continue there. If you would continue there, the call would end. To prevent this, a message tells you to close the newly opened window or tab and return to the first window or tab where the Webphone is already active.
Added
- Extra details to all standard buttons. The look of all standard buttons now slightly change when you hover over them with your mouse and click or select them. The details make it more clear which buttons are clickable and when a button is clicked.
Version 2.7.0
Fixed
- An outgoing call could not be set up with the click-to-dial browser extension while Do Not Disturb was enabled.
Version 2.6.0
Fixed
- When you select a fixed destination (e.g. your mobile phone number) as your user destination, you’ll be set to Available correctly.
- After changing and saving your user destination in the telephony platform, it will update your user status in the Webphone correctly when you go to the Settings page.
Version 2.5.1
Added
- A temporary message at the top of the page warning you that due to maintenance your contacts might not load for a short period of time.
Version 2.5.0
Fixed
- A blank area that would be visible after scrolling downwards when using the Webphone in a smaller screen.
Improved
- The accessibility of the Add contact button - you can also navigate to it by using the Tab key.
- Contacts with only a company name are now sorted alphabetically.
- The status when turning Do Not Disturb on or off if no user destination is selected.
Added
- A message that will be shown one time on the Contacts page to briefly explain and promote the new contact book feature.
Version 2.4.0
Improved
- The menu item Send feedback by changing the title into Contact us
- The help text for the Remote logging option on the Settings page by rewriting it to make it more clear.
- The Settings page by changing the Privacy title into Debugging. This is the new title for the Remote logging option.
Added
- An extra status for the accounts of colleagues visible on the Dialer and Contacts pages. A grey circle is now shown in each contact when loading the status of VoIP accounts. If the status is not available (e.g. no Webphone account was selected), the grey circle will remain visible.
- An icon to every added contact to make a clear visual distinction between contacts and VoIP accounts.
Version 2.3.0
Fixed
- It was not possible to change your password in the Webphone when asked to do so. You’re usually forced to change your password when logging in for the first time. This works correctly again.
- Duplicate entries of your audio devices (e.g. your headset and microphone) were shown on the Settings page. Only one option per unique device will now be shown. The ‘Default’ option might show the same device a second time, as it was already chosen by your browser.
- An issue when adding a phone number to a contact. An error telling you the phone number was invalid didn’t go away, even after you corrected the number.
Version 2.2.0
Improved
- The input field on the Dialer page will be emptied when setting up a call.
- Every phone number you add to a contact is automatically formatted. This means that the first 0 is replaced by +31 (country code for the Netherlands) if it’s an external number. From now, the first 0 will be replaced with the country code that you’ve selected in the settings of your webphone account.
Version 2.1.0
Fixed
- The variable caller name for incoming calls. When receiving a call, the variable caller name added to a step in the dial plan was not shown in the browser notification or on the Ongoing calls page.
- Some contacts marked as a favorite were shown twice in the Favorites section.
Version 2.0.0
The time has come for the next step: you can add your contacts to the Webphone! With the introduction of the highly requested contact book feature, the Webphone jumps from version 1.26.0 to 2.0.0.
Improved
- The Dialer and Recents pages now give clear instructions when you haven’t selected a Webphone account. The Recents page no longer shows any outdated information, but a way to select a Webphone account instead.
- Your Do Not Disturb status after refreshing the page. It should show the correct DND status to your colleagues when you’ve changed it and hit refresh shortly after.
- Length of the feedback form has been decreased by removing the Subject field.
Added
- Contact book feature. It’s now possible to add your contacts to the Webphone. You can do so by clicking the Add Contact button on the Contacts page. Enter a name and phone number, click Save, and the contact replaces the phone number used everywhere in the Webphone. Every contact you add is also visible for your colleagues who use the Webphone.
You can add a contact with any internal number such as users or call groups and call them directly, but also external ones such as mobile phone numbers you’re frequently calling and no longer want to memorize.
We’re really happy and proud to release this feature, and look forward to your feedback to improve it even more. If you have any feedback, please let us know by sending a message on the Send feedback page.
Version 1.26.0
Fixed
- When a colleague calls your internal user number directly, it will now show the name of their VoIP account correctly in the Recents page. It used to show your own user number and you couldn’t see who called you.
Added
- Do Not Disturb status of other Webphone accounts on the Colleagues page. When a colleague has turned on Do Not Disturb, the status of their account shows an orange crossed-through bell icon. This resembles the Do Not Disturb user status at the top of the page.
Version 1.25.0
Fixed
- The ‘Welcome to the Webphone’ process when you log in for the first time works correctly again. It helps you to select the right audio devices, check if everything is working properly, and give permission to use your microphone and show notifications for incoming calls.
Improved
- The color of the BLF status (Busy Lamp Field) on the Colleagues page has been adjusted to be the same as on a desk phone. Color of the Ringing and Busy statuses has changed from orange to red. The user status for Do Not Disturb has changed from red to orange.
Version 1.24.0
Fixed
- On the Colleagues page, you’ll no longer be scrolled back to the top of the page automatically when the list is updated.
- It’s no longer possible to set up a call on the Recents page when you have not given permission to use your microphone. This is to prevent you from setting up calls where you’re not able to talk with the person you’re calling.
Improved
- It’s possible to use the copy phone number button on the Recent page when you have not given the Webphone permission to use your microphone.
Added
- Ringing status is back! You can find it on the Colleagues page. An animation of a ringing bell is shown when receiving or setting up a phone call. When the call is answered, the ringing bell changes into a telephone icon to represent the Busy status. When the call is declined, it changes into the previous Available status, which can be recognized as a small green Vialer icon.
Version 1.23.0
Fixed
- The color of the Keypad button had an orange color instead of using the Webphone color when hovering over it with your mouse cursor.
Improved
- The Webphone now only shows one notification instead of several when the audio quality of the call is lower than normal. This is likely due to a bad internet connection.
Version 1.22.2
Fixed
- The updating of the presence indicator of contacts has been improved.
Version 1.22.1
Fixed
- Prefixing
*31*
to a phone number to call anonymously and other similar network instructions again.
Version 1.22.0
Fixed
- Notifications are no longer shown on the ‘Welcome to the Webphone’ and ‘You’re logged out’ pages.
Improved
- You’ll hear a ‘number unobtainable’ tone when a phone number you’re trying to call is incomplete or does not exist, instead of a ‘number unavailable’ tone. To make this even more clear, a message has been added to the ongoing call on the Ongoing calls page.
Added
- VoIP accounts used in the Android or iOS app, better known as app accounts, were always shown with an Online status. Because the Webphone is unable to check whether an app account is online before calling it, the status of app accounts will now show a smartphone icon instead.
Version 1.21.0
Improved
- ‘Do Not Disturb’ option is now accessible and usable for all users who use screenreader software.
- ‘Do Not Disturb’ can now be enabled and disabled by using your keyboard. Focus it with the Tab key and press the Space key to enable and disable it.
- Remote logging ID is assigned once and stays the same for your user account. This makes it easier for the developers to investigate issues and errors.
Version 1.20.0
Fixed
- When you type a phone number and add one or multiple spaces, the call would fail and prevent you from making any new calls. To prevent this, the Webphone will now automatically remove all entered spaces after you’ve pressed the Call button.
Improved
- The styling and lay-out of calls on the Ongoing calls page has improved a lot when using the Webphone in a smaller window size. Especially the Transfer view makes the best use of the available space.
- The toggle switch and text of the DND status is now properly aligned in all browsers.
Version 1.19.0
Fixed
- If the Webphone is inactive for more than 8 hours, it will automatically refresh. This is to prevent possible issues where you’re not able to answer incoming calls.
- Changing your audio devices while receiving an incoming call, would cause the Webphone to crash and prevent you from answering the call.
- All visible contacts no longer disappear from the Dialer page when you unfavorite all of them.
- The phone number or name of the original caller is visible again after transferring.
- The Webphone version (also known as user agent) is now correctly shown in the telephone platform.
Improved
- ‘Setting saved’ message when adjusting something on the Settings page. While cleaning up the code, we introduced a smooth animation and shortened the message to ‘Saved’.
Version 1.18.0
Fixed
- On Windows, notifications of incoming calls would stay visible on your screen even when the call was no longer ringing. Notifications will now be closed when a call has ended.
- On the Recents page, your own outgoing number would be visible in the list of recent calls when an outgoing call was missed or declined. Now, the phone number or name of the person you tried to call will be shown.
Improved
- When starting up the Webphone, you’ll no longer see ‘Not connected’ or ‘No Webphone account selected’ screens when your connection works correctly.
- It’s now less likely that you will be able to select a Webphone account that is already in use. In the rare occassion that you do select a Webphone account that’s used by someone else, a message will be shown to please try again.
Added
- A checkbox to not show the message again was added to the ‘Microphone permission denied’ and ‘No Webphone account chosen’ messages. After checking this checkbox and dismissing a message, it will change accordingly on the Settings page and no longer show the message in the future.
Version 1.17.0
Fixed
- Name or number that was displayed for a missed call on the Recents page. It would show the designated destination of the missed call, rather than the name or number of the person that was calling. It shows the name or number of the person that was missed from now on.
- Scrolling through colleagues in either the Dialer or Transfer view with arrow keys. It was reversed: when pressing left arrow key, the focus of the Webphone would jump to the right instead of to the left.
- Calling the first search result instead of the last one when pressing the Enter key. When multiple search results were shown in the Dialer, the Webphone would call the last result when pressing the Enter key instead of the expected first result.
Improved
- The user status at the top was improved. It now features an easy way to toggle Do Not Disturb to on or off by using the DND switch inside the status. The colors were also changed to have a better look and improved contrast.
- Amount of recent calls on the Recents page was increased from 20 to 50 results.
- The sorting of calls on the Ongoing calls page. The newest call will always show on top of the page. Previously, it would show at the bottom of the list. It’s now in line with the Recents page: the most recently answered or set up call is always shown at the top.
- After an incoming or outgoing has ended, you’ll no longer stay on the Ongoing page. Once the hang up tone ends, you’ll be redirected automatically to the last page you were visiting.
- The responsiveness of the Transfer view. When you want to transfer a call, the input field will move to a second row below the call buttons. This is especially helpful when using the Webphone in a smaller browser window.
Added
- A status icon to every VoIP account on the Colleagues page. The status icon resembles a BLF (Busy Lamp Field); it shows whether the VoIP account is online (green), offline (gray), or busy (orange). This is in line with the improved user status.
Removed
- Mini-avatars and the ‘offline’ + ‘busy’ statuses on the Colleagues page. They have been replaced by the aferomentioned status icons.
Version 1.16.0
Fixed
- While optimizing the Dark Mode, the default color of the icons in the menu was accidentally changed. They are colored the same as the Webphone again.
Improved
- The Webphone would memorize only one preferred audio device that you selected to use as microphone and/or headset. From now on, it memorizes up to ten different audio devices. Once you connect one of your previously selected devices to your computer, the Webphone will choose it automatically. As most people use up to three different audio devices, a list of ten preferred devices is probably sufficient.
Version 1.15.0
Fixed
- Being connected to the internet by using WiFi and ethernet simultaneously, caused an issue once you put your computer into sleep mode or closed the lid of your laptop. Once taken out of sleep mode, the Webphone seemed to be connected perfectly fine but in reality you wouldn’t receive any incoming calls.
Improved
- If you’ve installed the Webphone as a Progressive Web App, the address bar will use the main color of the Webphone instead of the default color.
Version 1.14.2
Fixed
- List of recent phone calls on the Recents page appeared to be empty and didn’t load any calls after the 28th of February.
Version 1.14.1
Fixed

Version 1.14.0
Fixed
- All new users are correctly redirected to the welcome to the Webphone section again.
- In some cases, your name would be shown as ‘undefined undefined’ in the top-left. It shows the first and last name correctly again. If not, logging out and logging in again resolves this issue.
Improved
- Changed color of all available buttons for both normal and dark mode. We did this to improve visibility and make it more clear which actions are possible.

- In dark mode, it’s now more clear in the menu which page is active.
- Transfer window is now full width instead of a smaller centered element.
Added
- A ‘don’t show again’ checkbox to the notification that’s shown when your browser is not supported.
- An option to the Settings page to turn the ‘Unsupported browser’ notification on or off. The aforementioned checkbox turns this notification off.
Version 1.13.0
Improved
- When forced to change the password, it’s now possible to change it directly in the Webphone. Because of this, it’s no longer necessary to do this in the VoIP platform. It’s mostly users who log in for the very first time that benefit from this, as it decreases the amount of steps to take before they can start using the Webphone.
- The ‘Accidental closing pop-up’ option has been moved from the General section to the Notifications section on the Settings page.
- The version number of the Webphone is removed from the top-right. This improves the visibility of the status when using the Webphone in a smaller window size. The version number can still be found on the Send feedback page.
Added
- A direct link to the mentioned Settings or Dialer page in the notifications ‘Not reachable in the Webphone’ and ‘Incorrect firewall settings’.

- The call button on the Queues page is now correctly hidden when it’s not possible to set up a phone call, i.e. when no Webphone account was chosen.

Improved
- The sound test button will no longer move below the Headset and Microphone dropdown menus.
- When an audio device is (dis)connected, it will show whether it’s a specific headset or a microphone. Previously this was a general ‘audio devices (re)connected’ notification.
Added
- The status of your Webphone account (avatar in the top-left) and the connectivity status with the Webphone (status in the top-right) have been combined into one general status. The new combined status is now visible to the right of your name and email address. The status remains clickable to quickly set your Webphone account to Do Not Disturb.
Version 1.11.0
Fixed
- The ‘on hold’ label now appears correctly when an active call is set to hold and the call status changes to orange.
- When starting a number with ‘+’ colleagues would still be matched, e.g. ‘+321’ matched to the colleague with the internal number ‘321’.

- Language selector in the welcome to the Webphone section is now aligned correctly in the top right.
Added

Improved
- The link to the Support page now links to a brand new external support page (only applies to the Vialer version of the Webphone).
