T-Mobile US lanceert virtuele nummerdienst
T-Mobile US heeft een virtuele nummerdienst geïntroduceerd waarmee klanten van het bedrijf meerdere nummers op één sim-kaart kunnen gebruiken, onafhankelijk van welk type apparaat. De dienst genaamd DIGITS kan tevens prioriteit verlenen aan gesprekken via HD Voice boven de meeste OTT-spraakdiensten, iets wat moet zorgen voor een betere kwaliteit. 

T-Mobile US werkt samen met hardwaremakers om DIGITS standaard mee te leveren. De dienst is al beschikbaar op de Samsung Note 5 en de Samsung Galaxy S6 en via de Apple App Store, Google Play en via browsers op pc's en Mac-computers. T-Mobile US heeft klanten opgeroepen om deel te nemen aan een bèta-test alvorens de dienst volgend jaar commercieel te gaan lanceren. 

DIGITS kwam tot stand op basis van een upgrade van het IMS-netwerk en een nieuwe oplossing voor Identity Management. Hierdoor krijgen klanten de beschikking over een eigen identiteit, ongeacht welk type apparaat wordt gebruikt.
