Great app crystal clear , my cousin has a stage 4 cancer right now and I needed this to coordinate her final days , thanks for creating this. It does need few improvements. Subscription or adding credits could be more functional as you have to try so many times to add credit. It’s a few cliches that’s resolvable above all I will still give it five stars
PA Pls approve applicationApp Store

J’utilise actuellement votre application, je trouve entière satisfaction dans la qualité de la communication. Surtout il est simple à utiliser. Merci

It costs yes, but honestly all I have is gratitude. The price I am charged is really low for the benefit i recieve and the quality of the calls. I would have been so lost without it. my only negative comment is that if I open certain apps like my bank, it instantly disconnects the call. The negative thought is absorbable for the overall package. That being said, if that could be fixed then I'd find it perfect.

Great app. Cheap call rates, works with landlines and mobiles, good call quality, and easy to use. Saved me a lot of money calling a parent from North America on a recent trip.
Brian JohnsonGoogle Play
The best on the market, worth every penny, using for years now. A tip for users, if the call has a delay, it's because of WiFi, use it through mobile data, nearly 0 delay.

I’ve tested so many apps for calling home to Bangladesh, and most were disappointing—except for Skype. But then I found Efone! The app is seamless, the prices are fair, and the call quality is top-notch. I’m really happy with this service. Huge thanks to the developers for making such a great product!
