App unpublished.

Today is the final blow from Vonage Kudos to you. They enabled captcha for avoiding people making international calls using forwarding means. Guys no more struggling with Vonage. I already moved to AllVoi, I completed the basic work to support AllVoi and going to publish the app soon with support for AllVoi and other calling cards. Anyway Vonage is providing something extra for their customer by enabling one mobile phone to use along with the account. I assume app developers like me would be a part of the reason for their support and happy about it.

------------------------
Now seems Vonage had disabled the instant forwarding. So instead of instantly forwarding to destination, home phone will ring once before forwarding to destination. With this change I republished the app.

Also I am pursuing to support more providers in the app.

Thanks

The app used to work fine with Vonage, but now it is not. I dont know what Vonage is thinking about the app but Vonage is making every change not to let the forwarding means of calling International destination using Mobile phone. Few weeks back I received a notice from Vonage legal to change the app name etc. Now with the Vonage extension is announced, Vonage seems to deliberately delay applying Callforwarding setting in call processing, What used to work consistently with 5 secs delay doesn't work few days back, then I made some experiment and found 45 secs delay works, but once I delivered app update lot of users reported the app is working again, then from yesterday 45 secs delay and even 60 secs delay is not working. Basically Vonage now have a story for the mobile users and doesnt need the app from me.
I will check for few more days regarding the delay in applying forwarding settings, if that doesnt work the unpublished would be permanent or I will post an update with extension means of calling alone. I dont want to waste time for Vonage and getting bad reviews from users.

I would like to thank all the users for trying the app and placed app in good ranking even better than the Vonage apps :-)

Thanks

Extending the app to other Service providers and calling cards.

Dear Users,

I am planning to extend the app to a general purpose call routing application, that can manage various service providers, calling cards instead of just Vonage. So user can configure multiple means and the app can choose based the provider based on the calling country. e.g. choose Vonage for India calling and Some calling card for Australia calling.

Please let me know, the providers you wish to support sooner.

Upcoming changes.

Country exclusive and inclusive list changes I am planning on the next build.

Hi All,

I posted an update to the app to include
1) Recent call history
2) Frequent Call history
3) Bug fixes
4) Contact lookup view modifications.

Please update your app to the latest.

Thanks
Suriya.

Following changes are planned based on the users feedback.

1) Call history with in App for the recently dialed numbers using Vonage.
2) Countries Exclusive and Inclusive list.
    Some users wants to dial directly to canada or use GV for Canada where as they want to use Vonage for rest.
    Similarly some users want to use this app for calling India alone.
3) Update to contact lookup view.

Please let me know by posting comments on the changes you are looking for.

On Problem "App calling home and not the destination"

There were time when user reports the issue of "App calling home and not the intended destination". When the forwarding is set on the Vonage server, Vonage server took time to enforce the change on their call processing. In the call using Vonage app I provided a delay of 5 secs after forward setting is set and before initiating the call. Some busy day and rare cases 5 secs may not be sufficient, in such cases the issue noted like before could cause. To provide users an option I made the delay a configurable item under menu->settings.
