Use Jabber on a Computer


Audio Recommendations

While most laptops have built-in microphones, the audio quality is not ideal. We recommend using a USB headset, bluetooth headset, earbuds with a built-in microphone (if supported by your computer), or other external microphone.

Whatever you are using, make sure that device is selected in the audio settings.

Control Your Availability

In order to receive calls on your mobile device, you need to have the app running and be logged into it. Here are some tips:

  • We recommend using the 'stay signed in' setting for your convenience.
  • If you turn your computer off and on again, you must re-open the Jabber app and sign in to receive calls.
  • If you don't want calls coming to your computer, quit the application. If it is not actively running, you will not receive calls on the computer.
  • If you set your status to 'Do Not Disturb' in the app, your desk phone will not ring either.


Phone Calls

When you receive an incoming call, a notification will appear on your screen. If the other party is using Jabber, you may choose Chat to reply with text rather than answering the call with voice. Decline will send the caller directly to voicemail.

Recents

Recents will show your past calls. You can click on the list to return a call. You can also send a text if the person has Jabber installed.

Calling Options

While in an active call, you may Mute the phone, Mute/Unmute Video, adjust call Volume, open the Dialpad to enter additional digits, or press the Ellipses for Hold, and Transfer.

When the other person doesn’t have video available, you will see a gray screen.
