From a web browser, you can make ConnectUC calls with one click on any web page with a phone number link.

Important: One-click dialing only works on computers with the ConnectUC client installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA).

You can use ConnectUC to make calls from the following browsers:

  • Google Chrome
  • Microsoft Edge

Turn on one-click dialing

  1. On your computer, install the ConnectUC client.

  3. When prompted, allow ConnectUC to make calls on one of the browsers below:
    • Google Chrome: Click Allow.

Tip: If your browser doesn’t prompt you to allow one-click dialing, please see the instructions below.
