### 2/5 — Premium Membership worthless?

*2026-07-28, version 9.3.1*

I pay for the annual premium membership. All I really need is the app to work with phone calls & functional call waiting. But twice today, in two separate instances, when I answered the incoming call while on the phone — BOTH the original call and the incoming call were disconnected! Might be time to start investigating new services and port my number to a more reliable service 😳

### 5/5 — Good application

*2026-06-04, version 9.3.1*

Good application

### 2/5 — Wow! Quiet hours that cannot have OVERNIGHT?

*2026-06-04, version 9.3.1*

What is the actual point of incorporating a feature that is SO limited that it is completely useless? I want to silence incoming calls from 9pm to 7am because I WFH and want calls to go straight to voicemail during those hours. But I cannot have that because 7am is earlier than 9pm 😳 After being with Ooma for a decade and a half, I apparently need to find a better VoIP provider.

### 3/5 — Incoming calls disconnect

*2026-05-28, version 9.3.1*

I’ve had an ongoing problem with incoming phone calls I take on my iPhone 8 running the Ooma App.  The phone rings once or twice then drops if I try to answer the call.  I always have to call the other person back, and then the call works OK.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-05-27, version 9.3*

Very pleased of the services.

### 5/5 — Best phone service

*2026-05-21, version 9.3*

Been calling from out of the state, amazing service, thank you so much!

### 5/5 — Best phone service

*2026-05-19, version 9.3*

Have had for more than eight years.  It continually gets better and more robust.  Love retaining my number when we moved and also could have a local number too, all ringing one phone.  Having it ring simultaneously on your cell means you never have to give merchants your cell phone number.  It would take a novel to write about all of Ooma advantages, just get it and discover how it will make communication better for you

### 5/5 — Works on an iPad too…🙂

*2026-05-19, version 9.3*

I love this app. My hearing has become worse as I have grown older. With this app I can make calls and hear people better with my Apple earbuds plugged into my iPad. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Good application

*2026-05-18, version 9.3*

Good application

### 5/5 — Improving

*2026-05-18, version 9.3*

Ooma continues to improve and update their services and APP. That is what is most important to me!  I know they are working to provide a great phone service. Thanks!, Ooma!

### 5/5 — Great performance

*2026-05-18, version 9.3*

We have been using the service since June and it has been flawless...the calls are clear and the voice mail works great. I use my Ipad and the app to make all of my calls directly from my contact list...could not live without it!

### 5/5 — Great Home phone replacement

*2026-05-15, version 9.3*

Works great with my Starlink

### 5/5 — Always reliable

*2026-05-05, version 9.2.7*

Very reliable service wherever in the world I happen to be. Love being connected to my USA home.

### 5/5 — Works on an iPad too…🙂

*2026-04-30, version 9.2.7*

I love this app. My hearing has become worse as I have grown older. With this app I can make calls and hear people better with my Apple earbuds plugged into my iPad. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Best phone service

### 5/5 — Good application

*2026-04-30, version 9.2.7*

Good application

### 2/5 — Time stamp not working

*2026-04-29, version 9.2.7*

The app works except the call log time stamp always shows the current date and time for all calls not the date and time the call was made. Very frustrating!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — If you wanna waste time…

*2026-08-28, version 9.3.1*

iPhone 17Pro? What’s the excuse? Spent time with “regular staff” & “supervisor” - nothing going.  
It sounds great, too bad they don’t fix this.

### 1/5 — App Crashes

*2026-08-10, version 9.3.1*

Cannot make or receive calls with the app. Paying for the subscription to be able to. When I try to answer or make a call the app crashes and logs me out saying “Your password has changed” I log back in and it does the same thing over and over.

### 1/5 — Cell phone app no longer working while VPN is connected.

*2026-04-16, version 9.2.7*

Cannot use VPN with this app.

### 1/5 — This app is terrible

*2026-03-31, version 9.2.6*

I have had nothing but trouble since I set this system up. The complete system is a waste of time and money. It does NOT record any of my messages. I can NOT screen my calls and then answer when I want to. I have made 3 calls to “customer service” with no lasting help or results. 
 DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY on this one because it REALLY sucks! I would give ZERO stars if that were possible.

### 1/5 — App is broken, Customer Support is useless

*2026-03-01, version 9.2.6*

When I try to call back from the Ooma Home Phone a number for a call I missed, the Ooma Home Phone consistently bounces me back to the login screen, with an error message that my password has been changed. The password hasn't been changed since I can successfully login to the app with the existing password. This cycle repeats forever. I contacted Ooma Customer Support via chat. I was told that I need to call the Advanced Technical Support phone number during certain times of the week. No ticket was opened, and no effort was made to resolved the problem. In Ooma's view, the paying customer is responsible for performing work for free on Ooma's behalf, in order to fix what is evidently a broken Ooma app.

If I could have given zero stars I would have. This is worse than awful.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-01-10, version 9.2.6*

They make it really easy to set up, and extremely difficult if you ever want to cancel.

### 1/5 — Keeps telling me my password has changed.

*2025-11-27, version 9.2.6*

I am considering dropping my land line and just using Ooma so I thought I’d try the mobile app.  I log into the app successfully and try to make a call just to test.  It immediately bounces me out to the login screen and tells me it looks like my password has changed.  It hasn’t.  Uninstalled.

### 1/5 — Can’t make calls from app

*2025-10-31, version 9.2.6*

Any time I try to make a call through the app, it kicks me out and says my password had recently changed (which it hasn’t). I can log into the app and their web portal with my password without issue. But any phone kicks me out. According to some of the other reviews, I’m not the only one having this issue. Ooma needs to get this fixed.

### 1/5 — Poor designed app with too much animations

*2025-07-30, version 9.2.5*

The app was designed poorly till 2023 and in 2024 they have added dark mode which is good but too much animation ruins it 
When making a call it doesn’t list as a recent call until 2-3 days later. Even after making a call using the app there is no recent call history that one can properly use. Recent calls are never updated with the name of the contact. 
This is poorest implementation of recent calls that I have seen ever since I used since 2020. The recent calls screen needs to be redesigned.

### 1/5 — It is an incredibly useful App

*2025-07-26, version 9.2.5*

I am so very happy to know I can call anywhere in the US from any place in the world and not having to pay International Rates. The only thing is that the phone does not ring.  When I get a call, the caller has to leave a message

### 5/5 — Internet Personal Landline

*2026-06-08, version 9.3.1*

30 December 2025 Tuesday 8:54 AM MST The Ooma Home Telephone basic service ~ $7.00 per month that functions with an internet connection, for the most part performs well with outgoing calls then correctly displaying logs of missed incoming calls on both the APP and handsets; about ~ 85% of the time recently. Would like the upgraded service ~ $12.00 per month that displays incoming calls that are answerable within APP, though unable to justify the cost as most (~ 90% +) of incoming callers are unfiltered SCAM/ solicitors/ hangups/ surveys. Ooma telephone service would be better if somehow the fake scam solicitation callers were automatically blocked and the full service was around ~ $8.00 or $9.00 total with taxes included each month. Paul in Arizona, U. S. A. [9:04 AM = 10 minutes]
