baresip+ vs Watomatic - Auto Reply For WhatsApp
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
baresip+
This is a baresip based SIP and mobile calling and messaging User Agent for Android. Currently baresip+ supports SIP and mobile based voice calls and messages as well as SIP based video calls. In addition, voice conference calls, voicemail Message Waiting Indication as well as blind and attended call transfers are available when SIP is used. MMS messaging is not supported yet. In SIP calls audio can be coded with Opus, AMR, Codec2, G.729, G.722, G.722.1, or PCMU/PCMA codecs. Video can be coded with VP9, VP8, H.265, H.264, or AV1 codecs. Security is achieved via TLS or WSS SIP signaling transport and ZRTP or (DTLS) SRTP media encapsulation. Development of baresip+ is motivated by need for a secure, open source SIP based VoIP User Agent for Android that does not depend on proprietary, third party push notification services. Contacts, mobile calling, and SMS messaging were added in order to reduce app pollution. This application can be installed on Android devices running Android version 9 or later. Mobile calling and messaging needs Android version 10 or later. If you don't need video calling, you can instead of this app install its lighter weight sister app baresip. Source code is available at GitHub, where also issues can be reported.
Watomatic - Auto Reply For WhatsApp
Watomatic automatically replies to all your WhatsApp and Facebook messages. This is especially useful if you are planning to migrate away from WhatsApp but can also be used as a simple vacation responder. Features: * Auto reply to every WhatsApp and Facebook messages * Set your own auto reply message * Auto reply to group chats * Respects your privacy * Does not connect to the internet * No Ads * Open Source WhatsApp's recent privacy policy changes have triggered a huge migration to more privacy friendly apps like Signal and others. But most of us find it difficult to delete WhatsApp because everyone else uses it. Watomatic tries to make your migration easier by letting your friends automatically know that you are moved to another app. Just set an auto reply message something like “I am not using WhatsApp anymore. Please use Signal…” and let it do the work for you. Troubleshoot: Watomatic relies on WhatsApp notifications for auto reply to work. Most users usually have notifications enabled so should work straight out of the box but otherwise please make sure WhatsApp notifications are enabled and WhatsApp fingerprint lock is disabled for this app to work. This app is not associated with any company including WhatsApp, Facebook, Signal, Telegram. This uses non standard Android APIs to achieve this so it is not guaranteed to work on all devices.
