WhatCall vs SoftWakeOn

Go straight to voicemail. Skip the ringing. Skip the conversation. When you dial with WhatCall, the call goes straight to voicemail instead of ringing the phone. It still comes from your own number, and on supported networks will even show a missed call. Say what you need to say, on your terms. HOW IT WORKS Dial the number in WhatCall as you normally would. WhatCall puts you through to voicemail. Leave your message and you’re done. WHEN TO USE IT • Calling in sick. Let your boss know you won’t be in without a round of questions. • Short on time. Return a call without getting pulled into a half hour chat. • They’re busy. In a meeting, driving, putting the baby down. Leave a message instead of trying to catch them at a bad time. • Too long for a text. Say it in 20 seconds instead of typing a paragraph. WHERE IT WORKS • Mobile and landline numbers with voicemail • Automatic dialling code detection for supported countries • Dial in your usual local format where supported • Some networks also send a missed call text alert WhatCall is free to download. Calls use credits available to buy in the app. The number you call must have voicemail. Behaviour varies by network and settings.

SoftWakeOn turns on your computers, servers and NAS from your iPhone or iPad using Wake-on-LAN. One tap and the machine boots, whether you are in the office or away. ONE-TAP WAKE Every computer has its own card with a power button. Tap it and SoftWakeOn sends the magic packet along every possible path: your network's real broadcast address, 255.255.255.255 and the computer's IP, on ports 7 and 9 and with several repetitions, so it gets there the first time. KNOWS WHEN IT IS ON SoftWakeOn checks the status of each computer on your network and, after sending the packet, waits for it to boot and lets you know as soon as it responds. OVER THE INTERNET TOO Enter your public IP or DDNS name and the port forwarded on your router, and wake your office or home computers from anywhere. IPv4, IPv6 and SecureOn passwords are supported.
