What difference a service can make!
As a VoIP app developer we are appreciating Apple Inc.’s step toward mobile VoIP freedom. Gradually, Apple opened up to VoIP (and did we ever mentioned that we were in the iTunes App store one week before Skype?) and recently to VoIP over cellular data networks like 3G/UMTS/HSDPA. They introduced Push Notification and inApp purchase too which were very user friendly but there is still one element missing: to make iPhone a full featured mobile VoIP device. We are referring to Multitasking; i.e. allowing app to run as a service in the background.
Now we have a brand new version upcoming which makes FriendCaller as an always running program. Unfortunately, not on the iPhone yet but on the Android phones. And have you ever wondered what a difference this will make?
Now, one does not have to worry anymore about launching FriendCaller each time to make/receive a call. FriendCaller now can just run in the background and the user can be called any time instantly. He/She will be notified by a phone ring directly as it should be in a normal call scenario. At the moment on the iPhone a user gets an instant message prompting to open FriendCaller, but on Android our FriendCaller version now works like magic. A small feature utilized, but a huge step forward towards user friendliness.
Our Android beta version is coming soon, please contact us at info@c2call.com, or leave a comment below, if you would like to enjoy the true mobile VoIP freedom as an early Beta tester
