Once your family member sends you an invitation from their UniTV device, you can connect your app to their account for quick and easy calling. You can follow the instructions in the video above, or follow the instructions shown below to get started!
Creating Your Account

Once you download the Uniper app, tap ‘Family Member’ and move through the screens shown below:
Now we can begin your official setup! Start by selecting your country code and inputting your phone number.

This will send you another SMS message with a 6-digit verification code; input this code into the app and tap ‘Next’.
Didn’t receive a code? You can tap ‘I didn’t get a code' after a short amount of time— This will resend the verification code SMS message.
Now input your name so your contacts know who you are!

Troubleshooting
Installation Issues
I can’t find the app in the app store!
You can find the Uniper App for Android in the Google Play Store here, and the Uniper app for iPhone in the Apple App Store here.
I don’t have my password for Google Play or the App Store/iTunes!
First, try to find your password on your mobile device. If you have an Android device, you can find all of your saved passwords using these instructions. If you are using an Apple device, you can find your saved passwords using these instructions.
If you cannot access or find your password using these methods, you will probably need to reset your password. To reset a password on an Android device, follow these instructions. To reset a password on an Apple device, follow these instructions.
NOTE: You will need access to the email account associated with your Android or Apple device to reset your password.
If you reset your password, be sure to write your new password down in a safe place!
My phone says I don’t have enough space to download Uniper.
If you are out of space on your device but want to install Uniper, you may need to delete some things to make room. You can learn how to make space on an Android device here, or how to make space on an Apple device here.
In App Issues
Uniper won’t let me access my home screen (Android Only).
If your phone gets stuck on the screen shown above, your default settings were probably changed. This sometimes happens when you install new apps or when you accidentally click something. To clear the defaults on your phone, follow these instructions.
Other Issues
I don’t know what kind of mobile device I have.
If you still have your device’s manual, it should list your device’s type.
If you don’t have your manual, look at your device without its case on. If there is an apple on the back like the one shown above, you have an Apple device. If there is no apple, you most likely have an Android device.
If you do not want to remove your case or cannot access the back of your device, find your settings app; if the icon looks like the one shown above, you have an Apple device. If the icon does not look like the one shown above, you have an Android.
I don’t see my issue here.
