TPG 4G Voice App now let's you make voice calls

Make and receive calls with the new TPG 4G Voice App


Just received this update from the TPG Singapore team, where they have introduced a new ability for you to be able to receive and make calls from a mobile app.

You will need to download the "TPG 4G Voice App" mobile app from the Android play store or the Apple iOS store. Upon your first log in, you will need to add in your SMS code to log into the app.



Here's an example of my test of this, where I am calling myself and can see it pop up.



I have a dual sim phone (Oneplus 5T), so I am using you will see that the TPG app is open, while I am receiving a call from my TPG mobile number.

I am currently using the TPG's first mobile trial plan to test the service, so these calls may be chargeable depending on the plan you have with TPG.

The new TPG 4G Voice app lets you make and receive high-quality calls from your TPG mobile number using ANY 4G/ LTE capable smartphone!

    1. Hi there, can I please check if you are trying to make using the TPG mobile app itself? As this only applies to using the mobile app.

      I just tested this on my Android 9 phone. I have added a screenshot of my test into this post for your reference.
