SIP dialer
Ring your calls on a SIP endpoint — a desk phone, PBX extension, or softphone app — alongside or instead of the browser.
Enabling SIP ringing
Sign in at dashboard.limephone.io and open Settings → Your account → Call Settings.
Turn on Ring via SIP.
Enter your SIP URI — the address of your endpoint, in the form
sip:[email protected](for examplesip:[email protected]).Save. Incoming calls that route to you now ring that SIP endpoint, simultaneously with any other devices you have enabled (Ring in Browser, External Numbers).
Getting a SIP URI
Your SIP URI comes from your SIP provider, PBX, or softphone:
Softphone apps (e.g. on desktop or mobile) — register the app with a SIP account first; the account's address is your URI.
PBX / VoIP system — ask your administrator for the extension's external SIP address.
LimePhone sends the call to that URI; your endpoint must be registered and reachable from the public internet to receive it.
Troubleshooting
SIP device never rings — confirm Ring via SIP is on and the URI has no typos (it must start with
sip:). Then confirm the endpoint is registered with its provider — an unregistered softphone silently misses calls.Rings but no audio — usually NAT/firewall on your side; check your SIP device or router's SIP/RTP settings, and see Call quality.
Still stuck — open a ticket with Support including your SIP provider and the time of a test call.
