Junk

Never works when I need it. Says connecting but never connects. I paid for use and canโ€™t access. Waste.

Doesnโ€™t work

On my most recent attempt I am not able to use the app. I tried to email customer service several times and didnโ€™t hear from anyone. Too bad, cause I liked the app

Totally broken - donโ€™t buy

Iโ€™m in the UK and this app 100% doesnโ€™t work. Donโ€™t buy it. I dial a number and it just times out and shows โ€œcall ended.โ€ No ringing, no chance to leave a voicemail. I emailed support with no response. Broken mess.

Didnโ€™t work!

The call went directly to the person, and I was not directed the voicemail. Boooo!!!! VERY disappointed!

Just says Connecting??

Used to be great. Now just says โ€˜connectingโ€™. Have reset phone. Deleted and reinstalled. Just seems stuck on connecting. Please update
