Download Official LocalPhone iPhone App

Share

Its finally here. The Localphone is now fully enabled via your iphone. I have been testing the official localphone iphone app since last few days and found great new ways to make cheap calls directly from your iphone.

If you still didn't notice, Localphone released their official iphone app like week and I immediately installed it so I can play with the features.

The Localphone app is slick and does the job very well. The best feature of this app has to be the dynamic number generation for any number you want to call. Localphone application basically provider a dialpad inside the application. This is totally different from your normal iphone dial pad. When you input a number (must be in international format), it will dynamically create a localphone local access number on the fly and dial out. This way you instantly save money on international calls and you dont have to create contacts for one-off numbers.

The Localphone iphone app (use Coupon code: LP2011JUL10 to get 10% Extra Credit) also bypasses the calling card PIN verification process making it truly seemsless to work with. However, I would really like the following features included in the upcoming release:

1) Make a CallBack option available in the app. This could be a value addition for people with free incoming calls :-)

2) If you have more than 2 incoming localphone numbers, then a way to choose the number while calling out.

If you want to add any features to this app, do let them know. If you still didn't join Localphone (Use Coupon code:LP2011JUL10 for 10% Extra Credit), then you are really missing on one of the finest VOIP Companies to make cheap international calls anywhere in the world including India.

When Local phone is charging 1.5 cent/min for India how they could be better than INDIA LD? The Iphone appication will be considered when they have a competitive price comparing to India LD.

Hey LocalPhone - Where the Android app? Surprising you guys haven't released one yet, given that Android has overtaken iPhone sales.. infact every day 550,000 new Android devices are being activated. Certainly not a small number to be ignored or taken lightly.

Dexter, how about i build the android app for you? :-)

Thanks Vinay, but it's just a matter of principle. It looks like they aren't taking Android seriously. If there is an official app for the iPhone there should be one for Android as well. Why should we be left behind?
