  • Good Update, Could be better!

    I'm not sure what this update brought for GV integration; it still seems the same as before. I'd still love to see proper support though!

    1) Ability to automatically accept calls from your google voice number on a SIP account (perhaps only when the app is active and within a specified timeframe (20 seconds?) of dialing out using Acrobits' built in GV dialer, so you don't need to press accept after you pick the number to dial.

    2) Using the same logic to link an outgoing Google Voice call and an incoming SIP call from your Google Voice number, have Acrobits label the SIP calls as outgoing and with the number that was dialed, instead of incoming and with your Google Voice number.

    Also, conferencing support as per groundwire would be nice... Maybe as a paid add on?

    Not sure why, but this update changed my color theme. Also, a recent update broke favorites.. not sure which one did that, but I had to re-add them all.

  • Getting better all the time

    I still find this app the one I go back to after trying others. Calls work every time, app stays dormant in background and wakes when someone calls. Yes it does drain the battery if it's set to keep active all the time, but I bought a car charger and keep charging as much as possible and all fine. We now use the app as our home phone (iinet NDSL) on an old iPhone 3G.

  • this is piece of ****,useless.

    i want my money back, i am using Bria and you don't want to even compare it to this useless program, you can not call it a Voip software when it doesn't do what it says, not related to it, please give me my money back.
  • Makes my day so much easier with this app & Ring Central

    I have a RingCentral account and with this app I can have a complete mobile office. I can be at the gym and take my calls. It make my job sooo much easier. I tried some of the other sip phone but this is the only one that I could find that would work with RingCentral. GREAT APPPPPP!!!
  • iPhone 4

    The latest update keeps draining my battery even the app is closed and the phone is standby. U have kill it in the app switcher otherwise u will see in the setting/general/usage that ur standby time is the same as used time even u put ur phone standby. Hope it is fixed soon.
  • New Version Doesn't Work Well For Me At All

    Just upgraded, and I hate to give a bad review, but this version is terrible. With the three last versions, I was able to receive calls (via Google Voice) with minimal problems. Without the app even on, I was able to receive a notification that someone was calling (Push Notification). If I accepted the call in time, it would open up the app, and I'd be able to take my call. I was very excited for iOs 4, and having the app run in the background, because I would be able to take calls faster without the app having to start up.

    However, with this version, incoming calls either ring once, but are "stale" by the time the application opens up, or there is no Push Notification at all! I am now not getting any of my incoming calls in time, and they are going to voice mail!

    This is a problem, as I don't get ANY cellular coverage in my work and living space, and this product was my answer to getting my calls via wifi.

    Please fix this problem, and reclaim a positive review from me. Thank you.

  • Crashes a lot

    This application crashes extremely easy! Also, very often, when the person that i call answers, it freezes requiring me to restart the iphone! It seems the application has serious bugs! I use a generic sip account which works great with other providers! For this high price, i would not recommend at this point!

    Update: the problem was fixed by contacting tech support. The problem was with the 3g codecs! Now it works perfect. Would give 5 stars if it had call conferencing!

  • Great support

    I addressed a specific issue with our carrier (Softphone was not able to properly push incoming calls for Speakeasy VOIP) and Acrobits worked to resolve it. It's still not completely resolved (the calls received automatically goes into 'Hold'); however, I am able to use the client with pretty impressive call quality.
    I hope Acrobits will update w/ iOS4 support as well as complete resolution for Speakeasy soon.

  • LOVE Softphone again!!!

    The update now fixed the issue with Callcentric, thank you for the quick fix! This SIP program does everything I need plus extras that give it a big advantage over others including Skype. For one thing the ability to record the call is a huge bonus as often I need to review conversations for my work. Also I never could get my Callcentric SIP account to work with iPico or other iPhone SIP programs, Softphone worked without any problems. Lastly, I love that you can now use bluetooth with Softphone which is something Skype doesn't support and I seriously doubt that other iPhone SIP programs do at the moment. In a nutshell this is a well polished iPhone app well worth purchasing especially with all of the extras it includes. I like Callcentric and it works perfect with Softphone, highly recommended if you like saving money!!! This is by far my favorite VOIP program on either my Mac or my iPhone. No I don't work them, this is just a Grade A written program and does what I need it to do and well above that. Now with 3G support there's no reason to use AT&T for international calls, save your money and get this app.

  • Acrobits Softphone

    The update fixed the problem I was having making outgoing calls with my Vonage account. Thanks for that. But now if the app is running and my phone goes asleep and I then go back to this app after waking up my phone - it won't register on Vonage - sometimes. I have to shut it down completely from the running app tray. I'm beginning to think I was better off before Apple brought out this so called "multi tasking". Seems like it created a lot of issues with a lot of apps. I'm confident this is going to be a good app again. It just needs a few more upgrades.

    Old Review: Even by their own admission this upgrade really does not solve the basic problem which is the inability to receive calls when the program is not running in the foreground. Too bad. It would be so nice to be able to use my VoIP line for both outgoing and incoming calls. Push is not reliable. Work fine sometimes - other times it is several minutes before the puch notification arrives and by then the caller is gone. I am using a 3gs phone running ios4. My VoIP line if Vonage.
