Bria is an outstanding SIP app for iOS, but it does have some inherent weakenesses which can be easily overcome by using this setup guide.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
It's extremely important you follow this guide for optimum settings and performance, as Bria is notoriously slow when registering to SIP servers using its default methods.
When you first start the Bria iOS app, you'll notice that it has no SIP accounts enabled.
