It’s hard to believe it’s almost August. Hope you’re having a good summer! We’ve had another exciting month over here with some major product updates. Here’s what we’ve launched on Quo (formerly OpenPhone) in July.
🖥 Quo for Mac
It’s here. We’re excited to launch our installable desktop app for Mac. Thanks to all who’ve helped us test it in beta 🙏
You can install the Mac app here ⤴️
Need help with the install? Check out our install guide here.
Here are my 3 favorite things about the Mac app:
- Faster than the web app. No ‘loading’ ever.
- No need to scramble with all the browser tabs. Easily access Quo from your Mac’s dock.
- Click on a phone number on the web and call from Quo instantly.
On Windows or Linux? Join the waitlist here and stay tuned. 🙂
⚡️ Snippets
Tired of typing the same response over and over again? Or copying and pasting? Create message templates for common questions.
Type / in the message box to access snippets and other hidden commands.
/snippetsto insert, create, and edit snippets/inviteto refer your contact to Quo (formerly OpenPhone)
We’ve created 25 ready-to-use snippets you can use for customer service, sales, and onboarding. We use most of these ourselves. Do you have a cool use case for snippets? Let us know – we’d love to feature you.
👥 Google Contacts sync
If you use Google Contacts, you’ll be able to sync them with Quo in a single click. You can sync contacts from multiple Google accounts, too. If you need to revoke access to a Google account or resync your contacts we’ve got you covered.
🤙 Call waiting on iOS
You can now put callers on hold. So if you’re on an active call and have a second call coming in, you’ll be able to either reject the second call or pick it up and place the original call on hold. Neat, eh?

🥁 Zapier integration (Coming soon)
A part of building an open phone platform (see what I did there?) is being able to easily connect your phone to other tools you use. So we’re excited to share that we’re working on the Zapier integration.
Are you looking to connect Quo to other applications via Zapier? Send us a note if you want early access + let us know what workflows you want to create.
We hope you enjoy these! As always, reach out if you have any questions or comments. We love hearing from you. And check us out on Twitter for more updates. ✌️
