In December 2018, Ring was renamed to Jami to avoid confusion with commercial products also using the English term Ring.[16][17]
In 2025, TechRadar listed it as one alternative to Skype following its discontinuation.[13]
Features
Available features depend on both the Jami client and the platform used.[18]
Operates on a peer-to-peer basis without a central server (apart from the centralised name server). Jami can be used on local networks without an Internet connection.[16]
