What is it

What is it

Your full business phone system, on your mobile

Your full business phone system, on your mobile

The Othos mobile app turns your iPhone or Android phone into a fully functional business extension. You get the same number, the same PBX features, and the same call quality as a desk phone — without being tied to a desk.

Calls come through over WiFi or mobile data. Your caller ID shows your business number, not your personal mobile number. You can transfer calls, access your contacts, check your call history, and check your voicemail — all from the app.

Perfect for remote workers, travelling staff, and businesses that don't want to pay for desk phones.

Can I use the app and a desk phone on the same extension?

Yes. The Othos app and a desk phone can share the same extension and ring simultaneously. When a call comes in, both devices ring — you answer on whichever is most convenient. This is ideal for staff who are sometimes at their desk and sometimes mobile.
