Intercom

Intercom allows you to place and receive one-way calls using a dedicated or dialable intercom line.

When you place an intercom call, the recipient’s phone auto-answers with mute activated (whisper mode) and broadcasts your message through the recipient’s speakerphone, or through the headset or handset, if one of these devices is active.

After receiving the intercom call, the recipient can initiate two-way audio (connected mode) to allow for further conversation.
