Hi Preetha!
Thank you for a nice review. I would only mention one thing. When you want to bring forward a keypad to dial a number missing in your contacts you need to tap the arrow in the middle of the screen on the right
The button A is for displaying all the contacts ;)
Again, thanks for taking time.
Hi Konstantin,
Its rectified. But what I could make out after using the application was that the dialpad could be opened by tapping on both the “A” button as well as the arrow.
Thanks.
This looks interesting, but not worth $20 when pocketcm is free and does the same thing. PocketCM also does threaded SMS.
Strangely enough, it almost looks as if this uses the exact same interface as pocketCM. That begs the question: “Which one came out first?”.
I’ll stick with pocketCM since it’s free.
