UPC Phone (CH) for Android
UPC Phone is an app which enables you to place and receive fixed network calls via your smartphone. Use your fixed network number now to place calls while travelling at attractive rates and receive calls to your fixed network number directly on your smartphone.
• Place calls directly via your smartphone using your fixed network number and receive calls while travelling on your fixed network connection by means of push notification
• UPC Phone uses the existing Internet connection (Wi-Fi / 3G / 4G). This ensures that you don’t miss a single call, even when travelling
• It doesn’t matter who you want to phone, the calls work irrespective of whether the call recipient has installed the app or not and of whether or not he/she is a UPC customer.
• UPC Phone can be installed on up to three smartphones per fixed network connection. This means that the fixed network phone now provides four telephone lines which can be used at the same time by the entire family
• With the UPC Phone app, you can make calls at the attractive rates available via your fixed network connection. If your fixed network telephony subscription contains inclusive minutes, these are also valid for calls placed using the app
• Save on roaming costs and place calls, even abroad, via Wi-Fi at attractive Swiss fixed network rates
• UPC Phone uses your address book so that you can quickly select and call your contacts
• Quick and easy login using your My UPC user name and password
Remark:
• Please note that you require a My UPC account to be able to use the UPC Phone app. If you still do not own a My UPC account, you can register at https://myupc.upc.ch
UPC what's your plan? I'm a new mobile client but would be glad to use fixed net @ home... Disappointing.
While using the phone, it keeps disconnecting calls. Sometimes four or five times each call. This is realy anoying and makes it less valueable. But the phone quality - when it works - is quiet good and at all a usefull app (especialy with a phone without an abo)
Even after several times re-installing it does not allow me to login. Although I am sure to use the correct login details.
App nicht mehr startbar. Kann mir doch keiner von den Codern erzaehlen, dass die das Update auch ausprobiert haben. Und wenn eure App einen Workaround zum Update braucht, solltet ihr eine Updateanleitung bereitstellen. Braindead? Onlineanzeige immer auf rot. Egal ob on- oder offline. Wenn ich euch ueber die App schreiben will, stuerzt Upc ab beim senden. Statusanzeige in der Statusleiste immer weiss. Android 6.0.1
Tried to use on two phones. Not working since weeks, impossible to log in. Unusable!
This app hijacks the USSD capabilities of your phone. It replaced the hash key to terminate the ussd command. If you are using a prepaid phone and can't recharge that might be the reason. Remove this app and it works.
The program used to work, but recently it doesn't accept my login as valid or simply times out.
Login does not work - app is completely useless like this. Customer support is not reacting
When I first installed it, it worked fine until android was updated. Since then it always drops offline.
Doesn't work since 15 days; switched to Skype!
Often needs manual open to connect and turn green, then it works
Einfach genial, dass ich nun das Festnetz in der Tasche mitnehmen kann. Der AB und Rufumleitungen sind nicht mehr nötig.
No need for roaming just connect to home base and do your calls
Version 3.1.2. (2) works well.
New version doesn't work and will ultimately freeze your device
crashes all the time. uninstalled until fixed by developers
It works stably for me. What could be improved is the integration into other companies not act lists, like Google contact (I am using it on an android phone).
Since one of the previous updates the voice quality started to have many interruptions and not possible to have normal conversation anymore.
Not working. Unfortunately stopped notification
Permettere la ricerca nella rubrica.
99% no connection
It saves you from a lot of extra costs (roaming or mobile charges). A minus is that you cannot search easily the contacts saved on your phone.
My phone's stand-by time reduced to the third part since using it. It goes offline w/o any reason very often
Quite often, the app is offline. Also fighting issues upon updates of the app after which I can often not log in anymore.
It keeps asking me for the language update. It also restarts itself after I close the application, just to keep spamming apparently. Also, the phone is running slow because of this. Probably a bug, because it didn't happen before. Second thing is that it didn't work for a few weeks, and then all of a sudden, it connected itself.
This is a very convinient app
Now I never miss a call.
App is really gd but most of the time it goes to offline.
ability to search contacts and disable incoming calls while allowing outgoing calls would make it a 5 star app
Not working. Unfortunately stopped notification
This is really good app for what it is doing, saves lot of cost. But it would be more friendly if possible to search contacts and edit it before dialing.
not usable! i have to reinstall the app after every call! tried on different smartphones with different android versions. voice quality is poor.
Never works... I pick up the call and then it says "connecting"
Great add-on funtionality for anyone who is on the road a lot and still wants to stay in touch with friends and family who call home.
Phone drops calls
Yepyep
Tut was es soll. Die Integration der Kontakte könnte besser sein.
Doesn't work on nexus 5 running lollipop
Does what it says. Saves you a lot of money. You can take or make calls from anywhere as if you were at home.

After informing UPC and them issue repair tickets, it still does not work. Thus, I cannot log in to my account, error message popping up, my credentials are wrong. I think, I would like the idea of being able to use my mobile phone for making phone calls via my Horizon account.
