SUJAN MAHMUDGoogle Play
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.
Rodrigo SouzaGoogle 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
Courage Iyamu (Solution best)Google Play
"International calls" offers affordable rates to Africa, Europe, Asia, and Latin America, saving me a lot compared to my mobile operator. The call quality is excellent with clear sound and no interruptions, even on weak internet. The app is user-friendly, easy to top up, and allows calls over Wi-Fi for maximum convenience. Highly recommended!
Мария СилаеваGoogle 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.

No tenía muchas expectativas pero funcionó de maravilla y además súper económico.

Great app crystal clear , my cousin has a stage 4 cancer right now and I needed this to coordinate her final days , thanks for creating this. It does need few improvements. Subscription or adding credits could be more functional as you have to try so many times to add credit. It’s a few cliches that’s resolvable above all I will still give it five stars
PA Pls approve applicationApp Store
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.

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!
