WhatCall takes you straight to anyone's voicemail. No ringing, and no awkward conversation. Go straight to voicemail. Skip the ringing. Skip the conversation. When you dial with WhatCall, the call goes straight to voicemail instead of ringing the phone. It still comes from your own number, and on supported networks will even show a missed call. Say what you need to say, on your terms. HOW IT WORKS Dial the number in WhatCall as you normally would. WhatCall puts you through to voicemail. Leave your message and you’re done. WHEN TO USE IT • Calling in sick. Let your boss know you won’t be in without a round of questions. • Short on time. Return a call without getting pulled into a half hour chat. • They’re busy. In a meeting, driving, putting the baby down. Leave a message instead of trying to catch them at a bad time. • Too long for a text. Say it in 20 seconds instead of typing a paragraph. WHERE IT WORKS • Mobile and landline numbers with voicemail • Automatic dialling code detection for supported countries • Dial in your usual local format where supported • Some networks also send a missed call text alert WhatCall is free to download. Calls use credits available to buy in the app. The number you call must have voicemail. Behaviour varies by network and settings.

Worked like a dream!

I had to call a business and the front desk guy is always so rude so I dreaded having to talk to him. I used WhatCall to leave a voicemail and it worked amazingly well! I dialed the number, it went straight to their voicemail and I left my message and went on with my day. I’ve been looking for something like this and I’m happy to have it!! Awesome app!! A+!!

“WhatCall” is a piece of garbage!

I noticed there’s only five reviews on this app. All five reviews gave it “five stars.” I imagine those stars cane from the owners/developers of the app. I can tell you THIS IS THE WORST APP I’VE EVER BOUGHT! I really wanted to leave my brother an important message but I really didn’t have the time or desire to get into a discussion with him. I just wanted to leave a quick two minute message and be done with my day. So I bought, “WhatCall.” I called my brother. It went directly to his voicemail and I began to leave my message. A few seconds into leaving my message, my brother picks up the phone and says, “Hey Dave, it’s about time you called, I’ve been waiting for your message.” Then of course I had to speak with him. When my brother picked the phone up he mentioned, “that was really weird, the phone didn’t ring but my phone vibrated and lite-up.” So no, his phone didn’t ring but it did everything else so he would answer. Sounds like these kids over at, “WhatCall” have a long way to go as their app DOES NOT WORK! I’m sure they thought, “we’ll develop an app and sell it for a dollar and all we need to do is sell a million of them and we’ll be millionaires!” Sorry guys- it doesn’t work that way!!!

Hello,I'm sorry you experienced trouble, but it's not technically possible for your bother to have picked up while you were leaving a voicemail unless it was a landline? If it was a landline then it is called call screening and there is no way around that because that's how landline answer machines work.With regards to our reviews, they are all genuine, as Apple constantly check and remove any fake reviews, checking activity on those accounts and IP address.That said, we had some other connection issues with a new provider we used as a backup which we made essential upgrades to increase capacity. Our upgrades are complete and everything should be back to normal. Feel free to send us an email from the App and we can refund you any used credits.Finally with regards to your 'million dollars' comment, it is extremely hard, time consuming and expensive to run a service like this. Apple actively remove apps that don't work or are fake, so 'tricking people' does not work! I promise you WhatCall does work and the great review illustrate that.

Waste of money!!

Really disappointed with this app. I purchased this app after returning from vacation to 13 voicemails on my work line. I thought this app would be great to call people back and give a quick response rather than having to chat with 13 different people. The first call was great, straight to voicemail. However, the second and third calls someone answered the phone. Not only did it waste credits for a call that did not go straight to voicemail the fourth call wouldn’t let me leave a voicemail. It cut me off mid voicemail and kept asking me to re record and start recording where I left off. Total waste of money. I’m glad I decided to try the app before purchasing a bunch of credits.

I wasted 2 credits testing this app to see if it actually worked. It didn't. I placed a call to my son's cell phone and it didn't go to his voicemail. It didn't call his phone at all. I burned up to credits trying to get it to work.UPDATE: Customer service is excellent. The issue was explained and my account was credited.

This was an intermittent problem for some US networks in WhatCall v1.4 which has now been fixed in WhatCall v2.0. Please update as soon as possible, and feel free to send us the number you verified in the App by tapping 'Support' inside the app and we will credit you back any used credits.

WhatCall has been rebuilt with a new dialer, contacts and searchable call history, multiple verified caller IDs, in-app credits, and improved call status. Existing customers will need to verify their caller IDs again after updating.
