| Calling
abroad can be confusing and labor-intensive -- ChatTime's app uses
a sophisticated UI and cellular networks to bridge local calls into
carrier-quality international calls. The app's handset integration
operates exactly like the standard iPhone phone application, so user
adoption is easy and seamless -- and additional capabilities like
no incoming call interruptions, in-app credit purchases and automatic
formatting for international calling codes makes placing a call simple.
Any
similarly capable mobile app for international calling requires
a Wi-Fi/ 3G connection, tethering users to Wi-Fi hotspots. ChatTime
is fully mobile, fully global -- it can make a call from anywhere
the iPhone can -- using local access numbers and global carrier
networks.
The
ChatTime iPhone application was approved by Apple and launched in
90 App Stores around the world, with over 2 million minutes of international
phone calls already completed by customers, in 216 countries and
territories, in 2011.
