While Androids offers a large selection of features, from entertainment to work-related apps, they are still essentially phones. It is therefore only natural to want the most out of it, but restrictions and limits set by telephone providers can often be hassle. So how can you avoid such annoyances? The answer is actually quite simple. Here’s how to make unlimited calls with your Android device.
First and foremost, you will need some form of softphone before you can actually take advantage of the information in this article. A softphone is essentially an application you use to take advantage of VoIP services. To obtain a softphone, open Google Play (formerly Android Market) and download a softphone or VoIP application. For it to then function, you will need access to a VoIP server. While there are some free VoIP services available, these are often low quality, with problematic call quality and very limited features. It is advised that you get yourself a VoIP package with a VoIP provider instead. Most VoIP providers also offer their own free VoIP application.
Once you have your VoIP plan and a softphone, you are ready to make unlimited calls. However, it is important to note that, depending on the package you have selected, long-distance fees may apply. In general, packages can be sorted into the following categories:
- Unlimited Can/US: These plans offer unlimited calls anywhere across Canada or the U.S., or both.
- Unlimited Can/Us/Other: These plans offer unlimited calls anywhere between Canada, the U.S. and another nation.
- Unlimited World: These plans offer unlimited calls across a wide array of countries from around the world.
Whatever your choice may be, VoIP providers usually offer unlimited local calls with no restrictions.
With these steps, you can avoid many local and long-distance fees. Moreover, with no restrictions or limits on your calling, you will be able to make unlimited calls with ease.
