Real reviews from eFon users on the App Store and Google Play.
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
The best on the market, worth every penny, using for years now. A tip for users, if the call has a delay, it's because of WiFi, use it through mobile data, nearly 0 delay.
It’s great app to calling Africa I love it🙏
The application has the lowest service fees compared to other apps providing the same service. I would like to take a moment to thank the support team who responded promptly and patiently. They were so helpful with resolving my issues using the app. Good luck
Great app. Cheap call rates, works with landlines and mobiles, good call quality, and easy to use. Saved me a lot of money calling a parent from North America on a recent trip.
Fair fee and good connection.I love it ,I have been using it for around a year.I tried another apps but there is nothing that can compare to this app.It would be better if you can add gift to someone who shares to friends as motivation
This is for the first time ever I am using this app and I am so happy with it. Thank you for your service👍😀
Dear efon, the sound of your earpiece speaker is very weak, my phone is fine, no problem, I talk with other apps and it is fine, but with Efon it is very weak, please increase the volume. My phone is Samsung S25.One UI 8.5
Great working 👍🏻 but, Cost per minute is a bit high
