WhatCall for Negative User Reviews
✓ DeceptiveThey charge you to purchase this app but no place in the description do they give the full story namely they will continue to charge you to use it. You only learn that after you purchase the app. In addition it seems buggy and fails often. They also want to get access to your contacts likely so they can sell the numbers of your friends and relatives to telemarketing companies. Stay away from this thing Don’t waste your money..Version: 2.3
✓ Only one call workedThought for $.99 I would give it a try. Literally only one call let me leave a message :(. Also only gives you three credits to start and then you have to buy more which I hadn’t realized, so not really sure if the service is worth the bother. At the end of the day just suffer through making the call..Version: 2.3
✓ Doesn’t display my number when calling someone.I want to give this a better review. Even after verifying my Number it still does not display on other’s phone. Used 4 credits, trying various solutions. Sent email to customer service. Nothing but crickets..Version: 2.3
✓ Does not workTried the app! Doesn’t work at all. Waste of my time and money.Version: 2.3
✓ Waste of a dollarSo my first call while dialing completely silent, and then it asked to have access to my microphone. By the time I hit yes, it went straight to what I was assuming voicemail without any warning. During my second call, the person was able to pick up because it was a landline. So I suppose it could work for some, just did not work for me..Version: 2.3
✓ Waste of money!!Really disappointed with this app. I purchased this app after returning from vacation to 13 voicemails on my work line. I thought this app would be great to call people back and give a quick response rather than having to chat with 13 different people. The first call was great, straight to voicemail. However, the second and third calls someone answered the phone. Not only did it waste credits for a call that did not go straight to voicemail the fourth call wouldn’t let me leave a voicemail. It cut me off mid voicemail and kept asking me to re record and start recording where I left off. Total waste of money. I’m glad I decided to try the app before purchasing a bunch of credits..Version: 2.3
✓ Buyer bewareDid not realize that this app requires in app purchases of credits to be able to use (that’s my fault). They do a really good job at hiding the fact that there is in app purchases. My problem is I had to buy the app just to download the content then have to pay for credits. Either make the app free and charge ppl for credits or charge ppl a premium upfront. Being blind sided by in app charges is total BS, click bait at best. You got my dollar but I’ll be deleting and not using again..Version: 2.3
✓ Works IntermittentlyThis works for about 80% of the calls. About 20% of my calls ended up with the the other line picking up. Worse — the calls that people picked up cost credits. For a paid app, this was disappointing..Version: 2.3
✓ It was great until I needed help.I have no problem paying for an app. It has worked well when I needed it. However I verified my phone number one time and wanted to switch back to it being “unverified” or say “unknown” when I am leaving a message. I contacted support and they initially responded quickly and said they could unverify it, just send them the phone number. I did. And waited. And waited. And emailed again. And waited. And emailed again. No response what so ever..Version: 2.3
✓ Does not function as advertised.This app, when I tested it, rang through on two different phones or failed to connect. As a matter of fact the only thing that did work was the deduction of credits. I now have three credits. Each call, failed or not, ring through or not deducts a credit. Five credits cost a buck. I paid two dollars for this app. What a joke, just a total cash-grab..Version: 2.3
✓ Doesn’t workDon’t waste your time or money, it doesn’t work!.Version: 2.2
✓ Doesn't WorkThe buyer receives 6 "credits" with purchase, intended for 1 call per credit. Unfortunately, these are quickly used up attempting to get this thing to work. I called several people from my contacts list, and got only dead air - no ringing sound, no recording - each time. I "left a message", but they received neither a message nor even an indicator that there was a voicemail. Don't waste your money..Version: 2.3
✓ Doesn’t workDoesn’t work, require refund.Version: 2.3
✓ I think the app is coolOnly thing about it, I think the in app credits purchase is unnecessary, seems like a way just to make money off customers for no reason. I test it out in mobile calls and the phone does ring! Not long but it’s notifying other person. I think it could use a prerecorded VM feature. I like the design and idea but it needs some tweaking in my opinion..Version: 2.3
✓ Still have to buy credits?? Forced notificationsThis app is a complete scam. After buying the app you get 6 “credits” to make calls. Then you have to buy more?! What a rip off. The app forces you to enable push notifications in order to use it. The notifications ordeal is nonsense as verifying your number is a manual process using sms. Reporting to apple for this reason this app is absolute garbage..Version: 2.4
✓ NopeDoesn’t work. Developer initially touched base then stopped communicating. Shame as it would have been handy.Version: 2.3
✓ App is DeadThis application previously worked well for me when I needed to leave someone a quick voicemail. It has not worked for nearly 6 months. I followed every walk through tip sheet I can find but nothing works. I go to place a call and it never rings for me. The worst thing is that I have already paid for credits that are just sitting there..Version: 2.3
✓ Paid for the app and they’re asking to pay for each callWhat a click and switch. Very bad way to do business. I pad for the app and when it’s is talked I find that I only get to make 2 calls and will have to pay $4.99 for additional calls. This business practice should be banned by Apple. If you paid for the app that should be it. Or make the app free and then ask the user to pay for each call. Deleting this app now. What a big mistake to have paid for it..Version: 2.3
✓ TRASH!!!!!I recently paid for this app and when I made my first call, the person answered. I reached out to support for assistance but still no resolution. I got an email from them asking if I was dialing from a landline and the answer was no. I was asked what carrier I was using so I told them..and I have yet to hear why I paid for complete nothingness. Uninstalling immediately. What a disappointment..Version: 2.3
✓ 99 cents and moreI just purchased and tried to use this service. The vm cut me off and then continued to say it couldn’t take the message. I had no idea that I would have to continue to purchase credits to use this service and my one of 3 is now gone with probably a missed call and no message left. Disappointing to say the least..Version: 2.3
✓ Terrible appThey don’t tell you in the description, but after you purchase the app, you have to purchase “credits” in order to use the app. I had 5 credits, and it diddnt even go to the persons’ voicemail that I was trying to call. It diddnt ring or anything either, it was just quiet, and then the guy answered the phone and I had to talk to him. Terrible app..Version: 2.3
✓ “WhatCall” is a piece of garbage!I noticed there’s only five reviews on this app. All five reviews gave it “five stars.” I imagine those stars cane from the owners/developers of the app. I can tell you THIS IS THE WORST APP I’VE EVER BOUGHT! I really wanted to leave my brother an important message but I really didn’t have the time or desire to get into a discussion with him. I just wanted to leave a quick two minute message and be done with my day. So I bought, “WhatCall.” I called my brother. It went directly to his voicemail and I began to leave my message. A few seconds into leaving my message, my brother picks up the phone and says, “Hey Dave, it’s about time you called, I’ve been waiting for your message.” Then of course I had to speak with him. When my brother picked the phone up he mentioned, “that was really weird, the phone didn’t ring but my phone vibrated and lite-up.” So no, his phone didn’t ring but it did everything else so he would answer. Sounds like these kids over at, “WhatCall” have a long way to go as their app DOES NOT WORK! I’m sure they thought, “we’ll develop an app and sell it for a dollar and all we need to do is sell a million of them and we’ll be millionaires!” Sorry guys- it doesn’t work that way!!!.Version: 2.2
✓ Doesn’t Work as AdvertisedI’ve tried this over a dozen times now and, more times than not, the person I leave the message for calls me back while I’m leaving the message. I decided to try it on my wife’s phone while I had both our phones in my hand and her phone rang once then went to voicemail. Tried it a second and third time and the same thing happened. I miss the Straight2VM app!.Version: 2.3
✓ This app doesn’t work.I tried calling someone who I really didn’t want to talk to, nonetheless, it Rang like a regular call and the person picked up. There I was stuck in a conversation with the person I did not want to get into a conversation with. Thanks a lot you morons! In too of it all, they deduct a credit from your account that you’re required to purchase even though it didn’t go to voicemail..Version: 2.3
