It's buried in the settings for the Phone app (the dialer) and AFAIK is often removed from OEM ROMs because of course it is.
As a VoIP engineer, it's a terrible soft client. It works, barely, and has basically no features beyond bare minimum calling. I've tried to use it repeatedly over the years but always ended up on commercial softphones like Bria or GS Wave.
