Re: A couple of app updates I personally have

2013-07-03 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Chris, there was a bug with the Voxer app that prevented people from trying 
the pro service. At first I thought it was an accessibility issue, but it seems 
it was broken for everyone. They have released another update, and you can 
upgrade to pro now. If you do it I'd be interested if you think it's worth it.

Voxer is in my view the best of all these walkie talkie apps so I'm considering 
it.

 In the app store today were two updates. One for Bbc News and the other for 
 Voxer.
 In the Bbc news app you can now get push notifications for breaking news. 
 From what I am hearing I will get more breaking news than I do on the Sky 
 News app, which some days I don't get any breaking news at all. Not saying 
 it's bad; just comparing. The sound used is I think a little clip of the 
 jingle used in the Bbc News channel.
 As for Voxer, one can now upgrade or at least try Voxer Pro. But I have a 
 problem with this.
 When I double tap on enjoy Voxer Pro, nothing happens. Any ideas? Wanted to 
 try the extreme notifications feature.
 Anyway just thought I would share my observations with the app updates I 
 personally received today.

Hi Jonathan,

 

I would be interested in why you prefer Voxer to Zello?

Re: A couple of app updates I personally have

2013-07-03 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Matthew, good question. I think Zello's public channels are really good. I 
have found though that sometimes when I've used Zello, I can lock the phone and 
find that I've missed notifications because Zello has routed all system sounds 
through the earpiece. It was a while ago that i gave up on it for this reason, 
so maybe that's been addressed now.

Voxer's just elegant and it works, and it seems a lot more people are active on 
it for one to one communication.
