App unpublished.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
Suriya.
-----------------------

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I will check for few more days regarding the delay in applying forwarding settings, if that doesnt work the unpublished would be permanent or I will post an update with extension means of calling alone.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
Suriya.

  6. Vonage now requires you to enter captcha for enabling fowarding. One option would be to display the captcha image on the phone screen for the user to enter it. Not sure if it is even possible, but thanks for the great work. It was good when it lasted.

  7. Suriya thanks to you, Vonage has been pushed to publishing Vonage Extensions, which would not have been possible few months ago. Remember all folks, Vonage was charging for a premium line to make calls from mobile.

    I am sure , that you will not rest and will keep pushing boundaries ans keep all these big companies on their toes.

  10. Suriya,

    I have used the call router software in the past for Vonage. Now that i found a cheaper company called Nettalk, i fired Vonage. Do you think you can make some tweaks to the call router app so that it supports Nettalk Duo?

  11. Hi suriya,

    First of all, thanks for the excellent app. It is the best call routing app I've ever used. I'm still using the same app on my old phone.

    Now when I bought a new I was trying to install it on my new phone. But it isn't available anywhere. Where can I find it presently?

    Is it possible to get the apk somewhere?

    Thanks.
