## What is iCaller?

QUICK SEARCH AND SET OF CONTACTS
New utility ICaller from KiraLine Inc is a modern search engine that you can use to very quickly find the person you want and dial his number, irrespective of how large your notebook is. Therefore, this program is particularly useful when driving and when traffic on the road is very slow. Now you just need to type two or three numbers or letters and the utility would display the list of matches, and only need to lightly touch the screen to call the person.

T9 SYSTEM FOR YOUR IPHONE
You can search for a contact through the T9 system, which is one of the most popular among mobile phone users around the world. With the T9 system, you type a word, focusing on the keys, each of which has 4-5 letters. Thus, the typing speed increases, while the smart program picks up the word you are looking for.

TWO WORDS IN ONE SEARCH
We all come across common names. For example, my phonebook contains 15 people answering Sergeyev, who have different surnames or belong to different aspects of my life. In one of the latest updates, the iCaller developers designed the search system for two words. Use the button "1" for additional filtering of contacts.

FAST SMS MESSAGES, AND REMOVAL OF CONTACTS FROM CALL HISTORY
Our application features maximum functionality at a time and this is of paramount importance to us. You can send SMS from the main screen by swiping your finger over the contact: swiping it in one direction sends SMS, swiping to the other direction deletes a contact from the call history. The same operation is also available from the dial string.

FAVORITE CONTACTS – SELECTED FEATURES
The ICaller utility is fully integrated with the phone book, in which you can add and edit contacts, and create a list of up to 50 favorite contacts for speed dialing, adding the photo of a loved one or colleague to the name. You can interchange the position of contact icons, add new ones and instantly dial a number or send an SMS message.

FINE TUNING THE UTILITY FOR YOUR TASTE 
The program supports advanced options you can use to customize iCaller for yourself. Here, you can enable/disable the sound and tips, and delete call history. In the settings, you can select the priority search by name or surname. This is especially important where two-word search is possible. Screen settings would enable you select the background of the screen, choose the main contact number or display a list to choose from and select the type of image - icons with photos or name of the contact. You can also select the main screen at startup - Favorites or keyboard for searching and dialing a contact.

ICALLER SUPPORTS THE MAJOR LANGUAGES OF THE WORLD 
In the settings, you can choose the primary and secondary language. Note that iCaller supports 5 languages. You can search in Latin and Cyrillic alphabets.

### 4/5 — Edit contact

*2021-04-16, version 2.0.6*

Phonebook editing is having trouble on iOS 14.4
Exits the program with editing

### 4/5 — Very good app but needs to update

*2020-12-06, version 2.0.6*

Need to update for latest iPhone

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-12-02, version 2.0.6*

Great app. Does exactly what it is supposed to. But iOS 14 disabled the speed dial function.  I wish there would be an update . Just tried all other t9 dialers on App Store and they are all too complex and not efficient

### 5/5 — Great for contact search

*2020-09-25, version 2.0.6*

I would throw this iPhone in the trash for another galaxy if it wasn’t for this app. I only wish it would show calls I make from google when I have to look up a number, and of course I have to look in other dealer for incoming calls, last iPhone I’ll EVER own bc of the dialer.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-06-16, version 2.0.6*

Been using this app for years, ever since having an iPhone.  Solves the problem of quickly dialing people.  Only downside was any new update seemed to delete your quick dial settings.  But there haven’t been any updates in a while so this isn’t an issue!!!

### 1/5 — Low rating due to bug....

*2018-12-29, version 2.0.6*

I’ve been using this app for years. It’s perfect in every way but has a nasty occasional bug. Hence the reason for the low rating. Fixed this app gets 5*

When clicking on a favorite to call most often after a start up or when the app has not been run yet - nothing happens. You have to repeat the process to call a favorite multiple times. It’s almost like the app is not yet ready or it’s conversation with the iPhone contacts app is having problems. 

I have over 800 contacts so it could be that. But there should be some kind of ui feedback as to what happened or is happening.

### 5/5 — It’s a good app

*2018-01-01, version 2.0.3*

I like it because it’s very helpful for me

### 1/5 — Calling

*2017-03-29, version 2.0.1*

This app still requires you to click "call" after you have typed the numbers or word you want and click call. 

Another screen comes up and says Call xxx-xxx-xxxx after you already clicked call 

This while not very time consuming is not desirable if I click call it should call. There is no point to have an additional screen come up re asking me if I want to call.

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2016-01-10, version 2.0.1*

You can dial by name!  Simple and it works!

Two minor gripes:
1. Press and hold for speed dial requires waaaaaay too long of a hold. About 1/3 of the time would be much better. 

2. Incoming calls (e.g.missed calls) don't appear in the call list. I know...it's Apple protecting us. 

It's the best I've seen so far.

### 3/5 — Plz update the app for iphone 6 & 6 plus screen size

*2015-08-21, version 2.0.1*

Plz update the app for iphone 6 & 6 plus screen size, it's been a year since releasing these iphones but the app hasn't been optimized for these iphones screens!!!
