The Press8 Android App is what Press8 users can install on their Android phone that will enable them to make calls from their cell phone, and show the Caller ID of their Press8 business phone system. Users can also see their current voicemail messages.
The Press8 Android App is only for making calls, it is not used for answering calls that are forwarded to a users Android phone. When calls come in, just answer as usual.
