The first iPhone application with Push Calls!

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

So it’s always been a bummer that you can’t run multiple applications at the same time on the iPhone.  If your running a VoIP application, you can’t keep it running in the background and receive calls, making it almost impossible to receive calls….

No longer with Telfree’s iPhone application – receive calls when you’re not logged in and the app isn’t running! Watch Demo.

Telfree’s iPhone application supports iPhones and iPod Touches.  You can make and receive calls on your iPhone using both Wi-Fi AND 3G. The Telfree iPhone application is the first and currently the only known application that allows you to receive calls even when you are not logged into the Telfree application, using Telfree’s innovative Push Call technology.  This is a significant step in making a VoIP application on the iPhone a complete phone service that we believe gives it the edge in the market. Have a look at the Push Call arriving on your phone.


You will also receive Push missed call notifications to your iPhone, which you can return with a touch of a button.


Not forgetting the other great features on the application – flat global rate pricing, SMS; instant messaging.  Unfortunately, no email service is available just yet on the iPhone.

We think that you will also really like our navigation style – Carousel View. Scroll through the features, calls, IM and sms with the flick of your finger, iPhone style.

Telfree – the New Freedom of Speech

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Unified communication now has a practical, convenient and approachable face with Telfree’s new range of products and services accessible from your mobile phone and computer:

  • Talk: make phones calls at affordable single flat rates worldwide – no more painfully long lists of call rates.
  • Chat: get chatting to friends on all popular social networks – Facebook, Skype, GoogleTalk, Yahoo!, ICQ, AIM and MSN – all at the same time.
  • Push Email: get email delivered to your mobile as soon as it reaches your inbox, on your Nokia or Windows Mobile smartphone devices. The push email monopoly is history.
  • Threaded SMSes: managing your SMSes has never been easier because now they are grouped by sender and displayed as a conversation. Plus, again – one single affordable flat rate to send SMSes worldwide.
  • Push Technology: close the gap between being online and offline and receive calls, SMSes and emails on your mobile, even when you are logged out!
  • Telfree Mobile and Telfree Web: access all these services from your mobile phone with our Telfree Mobile application or through our browser-based Telfree Web application. With just one account, you can use our services wherever or whenever it is most convenient.

By bringing all forms of direct communication together and making them accessible from your mobile phone and computer, TelFree has taken a giant leap in unifying your communication experience – one place, one service, one provider – for everything – that is the New Freedom of Speech.

We are especially proud of our pioneering push technology. Internet-based mobile communication solutions have long been plagued by the limitation of being useful only when you are actively online. Breaking through this barrier was crucial for internet-based communications to transcend the ‘online-only’ world and have continuity and relevance through the moments of our everyday lives – that is the New Freedom of Speech.

And To top it all, flat global calling and SMS messaging rates! Now you are truly in the global village where national boundaries are no longer a barrier to the cost of communication! Call your neighbour or Uncle Sam overseas for the same rate – that is the New Freedom of Speech.

Enough said. www.telfree.com
