#### Desktop softphone for SIP — answer and place calls with your own provider

WaveKat Voice turns your Linux desktop into a desk phone. Connect the SIP account you already have from your phone provider, then place and answer calls right from your computer — no extra hardware, no browser tab to leave open.

**Set up in minutes**

Pick your provider from the list and the technical details are filled in for you. Twilio, 2talk, OnSIP, Plivo and Telnyx are built in, and any other SIP provider works too — just enter your details. Add as many accounts as you like and see at a glance which ones are online.

**Calls that behave like a real phone**

Place and answer calls, put someone on hold, transfer a call to a colleague, handle more than one call at once, and use the keypad for phone menus. Incoming calls ring even when the window is closed, and you can pause calls when you need quiet.

**Know who called**

Every call lands in your history with who, when and how long. Open any call for the details, or call back with a single click.

**Record and read your calls**

Turn on recording to keep a copy of a call, and have WaveKat Voice write out what was said so you can read a call instead of listening to it again. Recording and transcription both happen on your own computer.

**Let it answer for you**

Set up a greeting that picks up when you can't, takes a message, and offers callers a menu. You can listen in while it happens and step in at any point.

**In your language**

English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

WaveKat Voice needs a SIP account from a phone provider — it is not a calling plan on its own.

## Enable snaps on CentOS and install WaveKat Voice

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap is available for [CentOS 7.6+](https://snapcraft.io/install/wavekat-voice/centos), and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the [Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:

```
sudo yum install epel-release
```

Snap can now be installed as follows:

```
sudo yum install snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
