App Platform Manager / Web Server: Disable HTTP Access via Port 80
235725 - App Platform Manager / Webserver: add option to disable http (port 80) access
https://wiki.innovaphone.com/index.php?title=Reference16r1:Concept_App_Platform#Security
The web server can now be started with an option that fully disables unencrypted HTTP access via port 80. Access can then be strictly limited to TLS-encrypted HTTPS connections, providing more restrictive security for the App Platform. The corresponding parameter is transmitted to the web server when the App Platform Manager is launched.
Users Admin: Configure & Import DECT Devices
237091 - App UsersAdmin: Configure DECT devices
237872 - App UsersAdmin: Add DECT to import XML/CSV
DECT devices can now be configured directly in UsersAdmin. They can further be imported via XML or CSV. This simplifies the management of these devices and reduces manual workload, especially for larger installations.
Projects App: New Functions for Your Personal Home Screen
239011 - Projects App Start Page: New Features
The Projects App introduces new features to make the home screen more organized. Users can customize their home screen, reorder lists using drag-and-drop, and display exactly the items that are important for their daily work.
Also new are lists for pinned tasks and pinned backlog items, as well as private notes. These notes can be created and managed directly on the home screen. If needed, they can then be converted into project items such as projects, sprints, tasks or backlog items.
Fax: Multiple Documents & New Resolutions
237880 - Fax: New Features
With Mail-to-Fax, you can now send multiple documents in one single fax. Outbound faxes now further support resolutions of 100 dpi and 300 dpi.
myApps and IP Phones: G.729AB Available Again
237992 - myApps, IP phones: Made G.729AB available again
The G.729AB codec is once again available in myApps and on IP phones. This increases flexibility in existing installations and supports scenarios where low bandwidth, compatibility or specific endpoint requirements are a factor.

Translations App: Support for eTranslation and Locally Hosted LLMs:
234210 - App Translations: Support eTranslation
234211 - App Translations: Support local LLM
The Translations App now supports integration with eTranslation, the European Commission’s AI translation service, as well as the use of a company’s own, locally hosted LLM. Companies and organizations gain greater flexibility in deciding how to handle translations, whether through a European translation service or through their own language models running on local infrastructure.
Users Service: Automatically Assigning Configuration Templates and Home Screens
233056 - App Users Service: Assign config to users from LDAP Replikator
If users are imported from Active Directory via the LDAP replicator without an assigned configuration template, the default configuration template from Users Admin is automatically applied. The same applies to the home screen assignment. This reduces manual administrative effort and ensures that new users immediately start with a default configuration.
Follow-Me: Activating and Managing Follow-Me via DTMF Codes
236338 - DTMF Feature Codes for Follow-Me
The Follow-Me feature can now be activated and managed directly on the desk phone using DTMF codes. This simplifies operation, particularly at standard workstations, in shared spaces, or wherever quick adjustments are needed without using a web interface.
myApps Client: Sending Feedback via the Hamburger Menu
235686 - myApps: Feedback functionality in hamburger menu
A feedback page is now accessible via the hamburger menu of the myApps client. Users can submit feedback on myApps directly through the linked innovaphone website. This simplifies communication and establishes a direct channel for feature requests, bug reports and general improvements.
Microsoft 365 Connector: Flexibly Assigning the “Free” Calendar Status
234427 - Connector for Microsoft 365: Free presence is now configurable
In the Microsoft 365 Connector, calendar entries marked as "Free" can now be assigned to any specific presence status. This offers greater flexibility for presence synchronization and gives organizations better control over how calendar availability appears in myApps.

2026-03-27 | NewstickerAvailable Now: V16 Beta 6 - Test the Latest Features!
Beta 6 for V16 is available now! Don’t miss the opportunity to test the latest functions exclusively before everyone else. Some highlights awaiting you are the Conference Scaler for scalable conference resources, the Connector for WhatsApp, the new document storage feature in the Connect App and incremental LDAP replication for more efficient processes in large installations.
What to Expect with Beta 6:
- App IP:
App IP brings full PBX functionality to the innovaphone App Platform as an app service. Central communication functions are provided flexibly as an application and can be seamlessly integrated into modern IT environments. The solution runs on the Docker Container App Platform, for example, and combines the App Platform and PBX in a single system (container). This creates a compact and comprehensive solution that enables easy deployment, high scalability, and maximum flexibility for operating modern communication solutions.
- App Platform Update – Security and Stability Improvements:
-
- Kernel updated to version 6.12.74 (stability/security)
- OpenSSL updated to version 3.6.1 (security)
- Buildroot updated to version 2025.11 (new package versions)
- PostgreSQL query planner optimized for SSDs/NVMEs
- Added kernel tool “perf” (useful for app developers)
- Conference Scaler:
The Conference Scaler is an app service that allows multiple conference interfaces to be operated in a cluster, enabling horizontal scaling of the infrastructure. The conference interface cluster can be flexibly reduced and expanded in size, and can be used in parallel by many small and large conferences without the need for explicit assignment of individual conference interfaces to specific conference objects. Interconnection in the cluster generates technical overhead, so that a conference interface in the cluster supports approximately 66% of the participants in standalone operation.
- Connector for WhatsApp:
The innovaphone Connector for WhatsApp enables the use of the WhatsApp Business API in the innovaphone Connect App. Once the connector has been set up, incoming messages sent to the company’s WhatsApp numbers are automatically displayed in the desired channel within the Connect App, where the messages can be answered directly. The company can quickly be contacted by customers, offers fast services and creates a modern communication experience. With multiple WhatsApp numbers, inquiries on various topics are also posted within the appropriate channels and the responsible employees are immediately informed.
- Documents:
Documents enables easy file sharing directly in Connect. Files can be uploaded using a button or drag-and-drop, and shared with other myApps users via a Connect message. Uploaded files can be edited by users and are updated automatically. Documents thus supports structured and transparent collaboration.
- Incremental LDAP Replication:
-
- Optimization of LDAP replication between PBXs through incremental replication
- Write operations possible on all replication participants
- MQTT Broker:
The innovaphone MQTT broker opens up a new area of communication, namely the world of IoT. With this, innovaphone provides a service that enables the seamless integration of MQTT-enabled devices into the innovaphone environment. The broker handles message processing between MQTT clients and offers a clear management interface. Features such as access list control and the connection of third-party brokers are supported. The client library can be used to develop apps with the MQTT protocol.
- Projects:
The Projects App is now more organized and more secure: Sections can now be deleted and easily restored via a restore menu, if needed. After 100 days, deleted items are automatically and permanently removed. Only admins can delete areas, while other items can still be deleted by all users. Users can only see their own deleted items, while admins can see all relevant items. Also available: An onboarding tour that quickly explains the Projects App to new users. The onboarding tour is a great way to get started with Projects.
- Working:
The latest version of the Working App links leave requests directly to the Connect App. When a request is submitted, a private Connect discussion is automatically created, involving the applicant, department manager, and HR. The messages remain visible only to these participants. Status changes such as “Approved” or “Rejected” as well as queries and approvals appear directly as responses in the same thread, and everything is clearly documented. The groups involved (e.g., HR) can be flexibly defined on the setup page and expanded at any time.
