The best I've tried yet but ...

This app is great and so far functions much closer to what you would want and expect from a serious voip app.

I have only two problems with it:

Doesn't ring via the speaker when the headset is connected ;)

If I background before taking a call it doesn't notify me of an incoming call but once switched to, will act as if it is taking the call yet the caller has already hung up. After that occurs it is fine. If I take a call before backgrounding it also operates fine.

If you have an iPhone and not an iPod touch, the first problem probably won't effect you as the headset is not required for the microphone. Even with an iPod touch, having tried almost everything else, I'd recommend this app. With any luck I'll be able to rate it 5 stars when I have time to gauge support.

Oh, SMS support would be nice :)

Bluetooth

Massive issues with Bluetooth, comes in at all different volumes. I’ll put it to play through phone but then it’ll just randomly connect back to the car halfway through a conversation.

If I’m playing music through the car when I answer it, sometimes the music will keep playing in the background.

Developer Response ,

Hello,
can you please contact us at support@acrobits.net ? I am sure we'll find some solution. There are options in Settings -> Preferences -> Controls menu which can hide the account information, but by default the account name is shown if you have more than one account configured. Please check there to make sure the settings are correct.

Fantastic app, worth the money

Love the app and really find it worth the money, but a few things would be worth looking into:

- Custom Ringtones (the included ones are not that great, so the ability to add a short audio clip to play would be amazing)

- making the App “universal” so it works well on iPads, this app would complete a proper portable office based on the device.

The push that actually works is amazing and critical for proper use, and it’s fantastically stable.
