This application gives you visual voicemail in a visually repulsive package.
Harware I have
T-Mobile G1
Pros
- Does what it says: browse through voicemails
- Gives you option to switch to loudspeaker
- Practical 3 button layout to Delete, Turn on/off loudspeaker and call back
- Swipe to switch between voicemails
Cons
- UI needs A LOT of work, very cheap looking (especially in landscape mode)
- No option to delete all voicemails or to select many and delete
- Does not work with bluetooth headsets, audio will still come out of phone
- No screen lock when listening to voicemail, your ear will undoubtedly hit the on-screen buttons and mess things up
- After I listen to voicemail, loudspeaker stops working
Bottom Line
It is definitely not the best visual voicemail app in the Android Market but it is the only one for T-Mobile users. I find it hard to believe that this app was developed by a big corporation. I would expect T-Mobile USA to develop an eye-catching, beautiful less-buggy app. And given that this app has been out for almost 2 years, I think it's time for my expectations to be met.
