About this app

Ooma’s mobile app takes your award-winning home phone service even further. With this app, you can make calls from your Ooma phone number, receive calls when you’re away from home, check your Ooma voicemail, and more. Purchase the beautiful Ooma Telo at your favorite retailer or at Ooma.com.

Getting started with the app:

1. Login with your Ooma phone number and password. Please note that the app works with the primary number on your Ooma account, not additional numbers. If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it by visiting My Ooma.

2. Make unlimited domestic calls without using your cellular plan minutes. The Ooma application makes calls using the Internet, also known as Voice Over IP (VoIP). Make sure that you have a strong Internet connection, either Wi-Fi or 3G/4G, to ensure the highest voice quality.

3. Make international calls for low rates. Visit My Ooma to purchase international calling credits or to sign up for the Ooma World calling plan which includes unlimited calls to more than 60 countries.

4. Dial numbers in your phone's contact list or set up a list of Favorites for quick access from the Ooma app.

5. Get alerts for new voicemail and listen to them conveniently on your phone. You can delete messages or file them into folders, all from the app.

6. View your call history, manage your privacy settings, and more.

The Ooma app works with Android devices running 5.0 and higher.

Ratings and reviews

Overall, Ooma is and has been a very great and reliable service. I've had it for a good number of years and have had a pretty positive experience thus far. However I've also been experiencing a few issues w the app, esp w sudden call drops, trouble connecting the calls, even some quality issues, etc. Unfortunately these have only increased and become more frequent lately. I use this app for the majority of my calls, but bc of these issues the app hasn't provided a very satisfactory experience :(

Voicemail notifications don't work anymore. They haven't worked for many months now. Calling mode didn't make sense either: inbound only, outbound only, or inbound and outbound. Why not just an option to enable inbound calls? The UI needs some work. Message playback is not very responsive making me think the app has stopped responding when a voicemail is deleted. There's also no "home" screen or dashboard or overview page that provides the most basic and common funtioons of the app

The Ooma app is ok, in that I am notified of callers and can see that they have left a message. And I do like the notification. However, voicemail message playback is choppy, which may or may not be an Android issue; it choppy no matter how strong the mobile signal is. I would like the app a whole lot more if it allowed me to block a caller using the app, like the desktop app does.
