Send and receive files with your team members as long as they are online.
Note that the files are not synced between your devices if you use UniTel Voice on multiple devices.
Sending photos, videos, files
Send photos, videos and files to your XMPP contact who is online. To send multiple files at a time, all the files must be located in the same folder.
The recipient must accept the files for the transfer to start. If you send multiple files at a time, the recipient must accept or decline all of the files for the transfer to start.

UniTel Voice sends a file transfer notification to the recipient. Until the recipient responds to the notifications, the sender sees Waiting as the file transfer status.
Once the recipient accepts the file, UniTel Voice shows the progress of the transfer and when the transfer is complete.
If the recipient declines the files, the transfer shows as Transfer Declined.
