The release is said to be a major upgrade to the mobile VoIP application for the iPhone, enhancing users’ instant-messaging and account-management experience, delivering a new standard for call quality. Read on for a few noteworthy additions, as well as for an inspiring statement coming from the CEO of Truphone.
According to the maker of Truphone, a free Voice-over-IP (VoIP) app for iPhone and iPod touch, the user experience is now slicker and more intuitive than ever before, thanks to enhancements included with the 3.0 release. Also, the account management now outpaces anything else currently on the market, while the app itself is, overall, faster and works natively on the iPhone. Lastly, Truphone outlines, the application shows an improved call quality, becoming what Truphone believes is the best app of its kind on the market.
Truphone also boasts an integrated instant-messaging (IM) tool, allowing users to manage all their IM communication from a single page within the application. Thus, they needn't launch different applications to switch through various accounts. Skype, MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger and Google Talk are the IM services currently supported by Truphone.
“Customers tell us they want three things: simplicity, quality and a good deal. Those principles drive our innovation, and Truphone 3.0 delivers on all three. We’ve dramatically improved our UI and account management tools. We’ve eliminated the need for compression by utilizing new advances in signal processing, making calls crystal clear. And, just as we always do, Truphone 3.0 sets a new benchmark in terms of quality and performance that competitors will have a tough time matching,” Geraldine Wilson, CEO, Truphone, said.
“With these improvements, we believe Truphone 3.0 is the best application on mobile for our customers’ international calling needs as well as staying in touch with all of their IM communities, in or out of Wi-Fi,” Wilson added.
