036 — Ubity UC Mobile installation guide for Android

Access the Google Play Store to download the Ubity UC Mobile app.

The language of Ubity UC Mobile will automatically be the same as the language of your Android phone and cannot be changed unless the Android’s language preference is modified.

We strongly recommend that you perform your initial setup from within a “known” network, such as in your enterprise or within range of your home network (if you have one) and not in a network such as an Internet cafe.

Set up Wi-Fi connection

Go to Android Settings > Wireless & networks and look at the Wi-Fi field:

• If it is on and a message such as “Connected” is displayed, then your phone has a Wi-Fi
  connection. Go to the next step.
• If it is off and the message “Turn on Wi-Fi” appears, then tap the field to turn on Wi-Fi and
  wait for the message “Connected”.
• If the message doesn’t appear, tap Wi-Fi settings (the next field). On the Wi-Fi settings screen, tap the desired network and complete the popup that appears. The message “Connected” will appear.

You can connect to as many networks as you want. Whenever you move into range of one of these networks (and assuming you’re not already connected elsewhere), you will automatically connect to that network.

Set up mobile data connection (if applicable)

Go to Android Settings > Wireless & networks, and then tap Mobile networks (the display of these settings may vary depending on the version and model of your Android). Make sure:

• Data enabled is On
• Use only 2G networks is Off (in order to enable 3G).

Let Ubity UC Mobile use mobile data when no Wi-Fi is available

To do so, launch Ubity UC Mobile and go to Settings > Preferences and turn on “Use When Available” and “Allow VoIP Calls”.

Launch Ubity UC Mobile

In general, Ubity UC Mobile works in portrait mode. It also supports landscape mode for typing messages so users can take advantage of a larger keyboard.
