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.

I've always liked wearing a lunar complication on my Apple Watch. There is something both visually delightful but yet also slightly geeky about it. But I was unable to find a complication that provided an astronomically accurate moon display...which just kinda bothered me. So I made Geneva Moon. Geneva Moon seeks to provide a highly accurate, visually pleasing indication of what the moon looks like right now, right where you are. My goal was to make it so that if you look down at your wrist and then up into the sky the images you see should match. It includes a robust set of complications for every watch face type. Choose between either a visually rich 'actual ' appearance or a more simplified version, to fit your own personal style. The main display indicates the current azimuth and elevation of the moon along the horizon along with a visual indication of its phase and orientation. Rotate the Digital Crown to shift forward and backwards through time and see how the moon will shift (tap on the screen to reset to now) On Apple Watches equipped with a compass (Series 5) you can have Geneva Moon orient itself towards the actual moon to make it easier to locate the moon in the sky. Thank you for considering Geneva Moon, I hope you enjoy having the moon on your wrist as much I do. —Dave
