How to Use FRITZ!Box User Accounts
• As a FRITZ!Box user with all rights, you can control and
configure your FRITZ!Box at home from anywhere, and al-
so view contents and download what you need.
• If you set up a FRITZ!Box user account for every member
of the family, with at least the rights to access voice mes-
sages, faxes, FRITZ!App Fon and the call list, the entire
family can listen to the answering machine or view the
call list even when they’re away from home.
