Linphone 6.0 \u201cDesktop Call Edition\u201d: New Version Now Available on Desktop<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n\"\"\n

 <\/p>\n

Linphone 6.0 “Call Edition”<\/strong> now available for download on Windows, macOS, and Linux!<\/p>\n

What is the \u201cCall Edition\u201d?<\/h2>\n

The \u201cDesktop Call Edition\u201d<\/strong> is a stable version of our desktop application dedicated exclusively to simple voice\/video calls \u2014 the most commonly used feature among our users. By focusing on this core functionality, we were able to optimize the call experience and deliver an intermediate step toward the new user interface introduced in version 6.0, without waiting for the full development of instant messaging and conferencing features.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc49 If you also rely on instant messaging or conferencing, we recommend keeping version 5.2!<\/p>\n

However, you can still try out<\/strong> the new Call Edition alongside it, without losing any data. If you use only basic calling features on a daily basis, feel free to switch to version 6.0 now and enjoy the updated interface.<\/p>\n

The interface has been completely redesigned with a new UX approach, so we\u2019re counting on your feedback to help us identify and fix any bugs.<\/p>\n
