Linphone 3.6.1 automatically generates a computer-local SIP identity called "Default Identity".

"Real" SIP accounts you have at a VoIP provider need to be created as "Proxy accounts":

The main window has a dropdown to select the current identity:

Is there a way to disable the "Default Identity"? I cannot use it to make calls, so I see no need for it. It just complicates the interface.

  • provided you have a FQDN, or even your own domain, it makes sense. If you had `cweiske.com`, for example, it would have more utility. – Thufir Jun 08 '17 at 05:15

    I would like to do the same, have you found a method for this? – scjorge Mar 27 '20 at 14:11

It is possible to hide the default identity with linphone 4.2: Edit linphonerc config file and add:

[ui]
show_local_sip_account=0
