About the App
The B4RN Voice Application can be used to make calls, receive calls, and change a limited number of settings on your B4RN Voice account. The App is optimised for use on mobile phones, although you can also use it on tablets. The B4RN Voice Mobile Application uses the same login details as the the User Portal. Your login name will be a number followed by @voice.b4rn.org.uk and is issued when you are first set up on B4RN Voice. You can make and receive calls from the Mobile App and landline phones connected to your router phone ports simultaneously. The B4RN Voice Mobile Application can only be used by one mobile device per account. If you need additional mobile apps, you will need to use Linphone or another mobile app.
Downloading the App

The Login Page
Input your Login Name and Password to access the App. If you have forgotten your login name or password, the Forgot login name or Forgot password links can be found at the bottom of the log in page.

Remember, if you reset your password, you will also need to use the new password in the user portal.
