Real reviews from eFon users on the App Store and Google Play.
It costs yes, but honestly all I have is gratitude. The price I am charged is really low for the benefit i recieve and the quality of the calls. I would have been so lost without it. my only negative comment is that if I open certain apps like my bank, it instantly disconnects the call. The negative thought is absorbable for the overall package. That being said, if that could be fixed then I'd find it perfect.
Very good app. fast connection, no noises & both end to end clear communication, reasonable price in comparison to others. Very satisfied, thank you
Good awesome call quality and suggest if video call facility is included Thanks n cheers!
I’ve tested so many apps for calling home to Bangladesh, and most were disappointing—except for Skype. But then I found Efone! The app is seamless, the prices are fair, and the call quality is top-notch. I’m really happy with this service. Huge thanks to the developers for making such a great product!
call quality is usually good, & costs less than other international calling apps
Very useful app! I live abroad and my family is in a rural area with no internet. This app allows me to call them directly at a very low cost. It’s easy to use, reliable and the support team responds quickly. Highly recommended!
The app is the best app to make international calls and low rate to Nigeria, very clear when talking with it and they do what they say. I have used the free credit the gave and about to recharge it .I love it
This is for the first time ever I am using this app and I am so happy with it. Thank you for your service👍😀
You don't need internet to call everywhere in the world, I love it because you can connect with your family regardless of whether they have a connection or not, what saved me is that it comes with a gift balance, thank you, very good app.
