I wish there was a way to actually type a message not just send me to the pre written text also but I'll keep sing how it works for me ### 4/5 — Like it *2015-10-15* Like it a lot. Things that need to be improved: add tutorial on how to use the app, when you switch to symbols you have to force touch the screen - it will be better if you just swipe back. I think having the time on the right top corner is useless and take space. Try to remove the time and give a bigger buttons. Remember there are people with big fingers and to press on that tiny screen will be hard. So please no time and bigger buttons. ### 4/5 — Very impressive but definitely need work *2015-10-06* Need to work on these: 1. Contact name sync with iPhone contact 2. Call pad user interface is just poorly crafted, need to rebuild the UI ### 4/5 — Button placement *2015-10-05* The 0 button seems out of place way at the bottom. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK & NO SUPPORT *2018-10-08* Don’t waste your time or money on this. It doesn’t work, the developer’s site is close, there’s no support, and I have yet to find a way to get a refund. ### 1/5 — Fake App *2017-04-21* This app does not work at all and there is no support!!! Return my money please! ### 1/5 — developer's/app support web-site link is DEAD. *2016-12-15* I didn't give it 5 stars because the developer's/app support web-site link is DEAD. Any app whose developer does this is BAD, no matter what the app does. ### 1/5 — Money back please *2016-04-30* How can I get a refund on this app...I was expecting to have a full keyboard so I could text instead of having to talk to my phone to dictate everything I said.. Please give me instructions on how to get reimbursed for the failed app ### 1/5 — Crap *2016-04-14* Doesn't work. Charged me 2.99 instead of the advertised 0.99. Won't even open. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your money! *2015-10-26* It worked at first - then it conked out !! Gave it a good shot - very disappointing ! A Rip - ### 1/5 — Don't work *2015-10-20* Crash All times... ### 2/5 — Can ONLY make direct call. Cannot navigate a menu. *2015-11-06* Many many calls made to parties answer with a request to make choices from a menu in order to ultimately make contact with the person you are calling. YOUR OWN phone system is probably set up like this. Unless I haven't figured it out or don't know how to operate your software, your keyboard App does NOT allow to go beyond entering a first level phone number to make a phone call. So to me, essentially you can ONLY make phone calls to your friends and family and your 'Granny'. If you encounter needing to engage a menu so you can make contact with someone - forget it!!! Unless I am not using your software correctly after the call is made, there is no way to use the keyboard to move further into a menu driven system to complete a phone call. I would appreciated an answer to my inquiry please. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Not a bad app *2016-01-20* I have been using this app for a while. I really like it but I wish it would access my contacts as well. But over all I am very happy with the app. ### 4/5 — Great only for Calls *2015-12-27* This app solves the manual entering of numbers to make a call. It misled me because I looked for a keypad to be able to text messages and it does not work like that. I think the issue could be solved by adding all the letters to the picture emoticons so at least we can text a picture of the letter and make a word for now. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Slick Keypad *2015-10-25* Fantastic innovation by 14-year old (his age) veteran of the Apple Watch era. Uses the hardware including crown optimally. ### 5/5 — Awesome ~! *2015-10-20* Awesome app , it is app that I just needed for my Apple Watch ~ makes Far Easy way to call with number that not in contact list ~! So far it works really well on Apple Watch 😀 ### 5/5 — Muito bom! *2015-10-20* Gostei do App, facilita bastante e é um recurso que faltava mesmo no Apple Watch. ### 5/5 — Ótimo *2015-10-20* Bem legal, recomendo ### 5/5 — Making call *2015-10-15* I think it's a good app, it just takes time to get use to it as it does using the Apple Watch it self. ### 5/5 — Great app!!! *2015-10-15* Please add glances and a quicker response to the dial pad, other than that, this is a well needed and well welcomed app. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2015-10-06* I think this app is awesome and it works. Sure you can change here and there but why changes anything when it work fine the way it is. It does however needs a little instruction oh how to make phone calls other than that all you do is press and chose to make phone call or text messages. ### 5/5 — Push to dial *2015-10-05* Works well but it took a minute or two to figure out the 3D push is necessary to dial. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
