Android users

Android users can also download the Jami extensions, but they will need to take a few more steps. First, you will need to download the .jpl files that are available above ; click on the extension you would want to add and click on “Download on Android”.
Second, you will need to go to the Advanced Settings on the Android app, select “Plugins” and tap on the “+” button to install the .jpl files.

IOS users

Jami’s extensions are however not available to iOS users, as iOS has specific directives that do not allow these extensions.

How to enable the extensions?

Third-party extensions are extensions taken outside of the Jami environment to be integrated to it. For Windows, GNU/Linux, Android and Mac users, it is possible to install other extensions onto Jami.

Once you have downloaded the extension of your choice, you will need to install it. To do so:

  • Go to your Settings and click on the “Install” button in the “Extensions” section to install the extension (.jpl)
  • During a call, an “Extension” button is now displayed in the call layout. Click on it to activate the plugin.
