Why limit yourself to your small screen on the phone? Run Linphone, an app by Belledonne communications, best experienced on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, the world’s #1 Android emulator.
So Linphone is one of those apps that makes calling and sending messages over the internet simple, without getting heavy or complicated. It connects using audio and video, and it works even if your friends are using regular phones—there’s a lot of flexibility. The sound and video quality stand out, especially when running it on a bigger screen using something like BlueStacks. Group audio calls are possible too, so bringing a few people together for a chat isn’t a hassle. It’s got picture and file sharing, which keeps things easy when you need to send documents or photos in the middle of a conversation.
It doesn’t matter if the app is closed—thanks to push notifications, calls and messages still come through. That’s helpful if you don’t want to miss anything important, but don’t want the app open all day. Everything’s set up with options for more secure conversations if that matters—encryption’s built in, so calls and texts aren’t just going out in the open. What’s cool is that it supports a bunch of settings for users who really want to tweak things, like codecs or different types of encryption. All in all, it feels like Linphone keeps things direct and straightforward, so whether someone just wants simple calls or wants to get a bit technical, it fits both ways.
