Fongo World Edition Reviews

by Shirish@2017

One of the worst paid apps. You can dial the number but your call hangs when it tries to connect and also when you try to end the call. FongoWorldEdition also has a feature to listen to voicemail, which hangs FongoWorldEdition , when you try to play the message.

It says add-free paid version but you still get to see ads, which is very frustrating.

Don’t buy it and save yourself some money.

I get half of the calls, for the other half i get delayed notifications and of course they go to voicemail. In addition the gui is buggy, for example the top left hamburger menu is not reacting to touch input on iphone 7S ios 11.2 most of the time. Have beta testers before releasing new versions please.

I subscribed few days back. I'm not able to receive calls on the number provided by fongo. only outgoing is working. I have approached the customer care 4-5 days back and no body has replied anything till now.

I have a hard time getting connected. I have had other ip phones but I signed up for this service because I needed a number for my business card but unfortunately it has poor service.

Displaying ads even after buying FongoWorldEdition for $4.99 USD is ridiculous. I totally understand if FongoWorldEdition is free, but it’s not.

You have to keep running FongoWorldEdition on the background in order to receive any incoming calls. Even after doing that, many a times the person who is trying to call cannot reach your number. During the calls, your voice breaks up and people cannot hear you properly. I have a good wifi and network connection, despite that I faced the above issues!

Terrible connectivity. More static and noise then hearing the person on the other end.

This is a good app. It gives you a valid phone number. However, expect calls from fraudsters. Do not disclose any personal information to any person calling you on FongoWorldEdition and pretending that they represent the law enforcement or governmental authoroties.

Why can’t we receive picture or send picture, picture sending is not good as well it’s should be send like real cell phone... Please fix it

Fongo go Wrongo 20% of time. Getting better slowly over time.

1) I like Fongo. Good app, but it needs improvement as it has bugs with sometimes missing settings for "Show My Caller ID". Importantly, voice mail is not 100% reliable. Just left myself a message from a landline.
No message delivered?

2) When dialing my Fongo number from a land line I always get directed to voice mail. How to change so Fongo will ring?

3) No regex to recognize telephone entries in their support form for Fongo phone numbers.

I really love FongoWorldEdition . (World Edition)

But it keeps receiving a lot of annoying Fax ads from Toronto area (ano) nym-ous. My phone is not a Fax machine. Could you please introduce a switch to enable/disable receiving Fax function. That will be very great feature.

Thank you very much for your great effort.

I needed a Canadian phone number because my plan charges far too much to call Canada. Also, if you make friends in Canada, they most likely won't get charged calling you on your Fongo number.

The interface could be prettier and easier to use. The quality of calls is far better than free calls using FB Messenger. I added the texting plan and it's fantastic. The investment isn't much for a service that works well. I don't mind the ads, but I wish it was free to eliminate them with any Fongo service.

Works great. usually the calls never get dropped but it happened twice while I was talking to the same person. it could be due to a slow wifi connection. overall i give it a 99.7% rating.

I get a job in Canada because of FongoWorldEdition, I was working abroad and I added fongo number in my CV, many recruiters called me, if I added international number no one ever would call me.

Stable app, clear voice, almost free, voice message.

Many thanks for Fongo team for the great app

Great for outgoing calls however so many flaws for incoming calls . I'm missing so many calls and the missed calls are not even showing up on the missed call list.

by SayXyzzy

It is great for keeping in touch with folks in Canada.

I wish the "plans" were a bit more flexible allowing things like international text messaging and forwarding incoming calls to my US mobile number. I would pay extra for these features.

On the whole, something like line2 or sendhub is a better solution because of the flexibility to use cellular for calls as well as voip. But line2 is $10/mo. Sendhub is $25/mo.

My fiancé works in Canada 6 of 12 months every year. This wonderful app gives us the ability to talk to each other truly talk for as long as we want. Without any more expense. You must have access to wifi is the only reason I did not give it a 5 star. I only purchased the $4.99 basic app. For 6 weeks we have talked an the average of 2.5hrs per call some days 2-3 times a day. With me being in the US I can even call his work, as long as it is a Canadian number, for free.
If we could use Internet and not just wifi it would be the perfect mist affordable way to make international calls.

Thank you 'fongo'

Not working nobody can call me .. massages not coming can’t transfer my number back fully garbage

Note: Recent update of FongoWorldEdition , killed call ringing on the phone. Calls no longer ring on the phone. Only get a missed called notification pop-up. When the issue was reported, Fongo fixed it very quickly. Kudos to their team.
