Summary

Mumble is a very good simple VOIP application. There is a server somewhere and clients can connect to it. For Android there are for example the clients "Plumple" and "Mumla".

A search for "Mumble" should result in "Plumple" and "Mumla". But nothing comes up. The user must already know the program he is looking for.
