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.

About

Bubble Level Watch Special

Features
Read full description

Your Apple Watch as a spirit level. Rest your wrist on a shelf, a frame, or a table leg. The bubble floats to the high side, and the readout shows the tilt in degrees. Two firm taps when it sits level, so you can watch the work instead of the screen. Tap to hold a reading, then bring your wrist back and read what it captured. Runs on the watch alone. No iPhone app, no ads, no tracking, no data collected. For quick everyday checks rather than calibrated precision work.
