Neutron :: Bomb: iPhone App Review
Calendar16 Fri, 22 May 2009 22:31:11 UTC +00:00
truphone, available for free from the iTunes App Store, is a VoIP software application made specifically for the iPhone device. The concept of VoIP is not new, but the idea of using it on the new wave of Smartphones is new. In theory, one can make very cheap international calls from your handheld, as opposed to not-so-cheap calls made using the regular phone call capabilities of the device (hint: its the best part of most phones, actually calling someone). Set up was pretty simple, though they ask for an email address. I suppose the email is the means to get me to give them money for an account. I also suppose this makes sense. Once I had my phone number formatted properly, the service called me to confirm, and then I was up and running. I also set up an iPhone from Germany, also a snap to setup. From the website:Truphone Read More

Great new app
Mairin78 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is highly addictive and dangerous to my already questionable productivity at the day job. But will come in VERY handy for Xmas/birthday shopping. Plus nothing makes me happier than reading about a $3600 coffee maker spitting out lukewarm beverages.
Great app for xmas shopping.
Kate Harris 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Rockin' app just in time for the holidays. The graphics are sweet and the reviews are muy helpful. Nice job!
Great inventory of all the stuff I want to buy
iPhone Home 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Simple, easy to navigate listing of Wired's product reviews. The search function is key. Maybe in next release include sub categories (e.g. LCD, Plasma, etc).
GREAT for shopping - some tweaks needed
Celticelve 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Seems to be running great on my phone. I have yet to experience a crash or hangup, running on edge, 3g, and wifi.  I feel like it will be used quite a bit while shopping. The only confusion I had was on the home screen. On first glance, I didn't understand right away what all the icons were supposed to represent. Maybe in a future build they can show text labels when the user holds down on the icon, because that seems most natural. For a second opinion, i handed the phone to my girlfriend and asked her if she could figure out the categories at first glance, and she couldn't get all of them. But once I used it for about 15 minutes, I noticed it gave the category name once you were in the section, so you get the hang of it really quickly. It would also be nice if you could turn the ipod to see the text bigger when reading (the nytimes app does this), but not a dealbreaker as the text is a decent size.
Great App
niiii 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is a very nice application, wired really created a great interface with the trusted gadget and tech reviews that the editors at Wired write. This is one of the first FLAWLESS applications in the app store. I will definitely be using this app during the holiday season coming up.
Awwsome
Psychomaster 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Very nice :-)
Great app buy crashes often
Feltzem 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Overall a fantastic app for browsing gadgets but while I was scrolling down lists it crashed frequently. An option to reverse the order of the lists (e.g reversing from price low-high to price high-low) would be useful as repeatedly scrolling down can be annoying.
Good App, needs more
Melodicious 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Good app, looks great and easy to navigate.
Handy App
BobinNYC 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
A nice app that is a great time killer and handy during the holiday season. Tons of helpful and insightful reviews to find gifts for anybody on your list. The app is easy to navigate and the search function makes it a breeze to find what you are looking for. Maybe you guys can add a price range search option in your next release.
Functional, but missing blogs
d13vk 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is a near little app, but without the wired blogs, it won't last on my iPhone after Xmas.
Absoultely massive app
Jackjbhj 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Finally! An easy way to find a review of a product
Just what I needed
RDanielson 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
More Ferrari reviews please ;-) Actually, I go to Amazon on Safari a lot while in stores to get information like this app has. This will really help me. I'll use it frequently.
well done resource
phavor 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
very nice job, sans the ads. this app is very informative, great look as well!!
How did this get such a high rating
sobeguy 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
First of all the categories are all not accurate at all. Secondly the ratings make absolutely no sense. They rate a Dodge MiniVAN up there with a Viper and a Ferrari? And they mix cameras with binoculars? Audio Video receivers with headphones? And the iPhone was rated 6 or 7 and some really useless phone with a keyboard was rated #1? Enough said.
Fix the bugs
Wired nerd 3.0 stars Version: 1.1
It's a pretty good app but crashes all the time... Like ALL the time.
"Tired", Wired
Ted360 3.0 stars Version: 1.1
Tired: Searching for more content is a wast of time, i was going in circles trying to locat the iPhone 3G, and wouldn't you know it wasn't in the "latest" or top "rated" cateigories. Plus videos are limited to about 20 and most of the time when you play a video it plays a different video and takes an F-ing 10min to load Wired: Video works best best on Wi-Fi, and there are enough blogs you can read too, if you really want to. I Hope Wired fixed their bugs, but might as well go to there website till then.
Great
JGSR 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
This is a very great app.
Please update
Caljrr 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
I love this app and would recommend it to anyone who likes electronics. That being said, it has some issues that they need to fix. First of all, it needs more reviews and videos. I haven't seen a single new review since I've had this app, and not a single video either. Also when you try to load up more reviews it loads up the same reviews as you already have loaded. This might just be because of the lack of many reviews. Please update!!!!!! I will give 5 stars when updated.
Awesome
Niklosb 3.0 stars Version: 1.1
Works great, I love wired
Crappy
Jamachine 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
The search feature doesn't work AT ALL! You can type in a product you just looked at letter-for-letter and it tells you it can find "no results". Save your time, this app is crap!
New reviews?
WCP1995 2.0 stars Version: 1.0
I have had this app now for nearly two months and I haven't seen one new review being posted....
Stupid
Colypsoe 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
I think this app is for geeks needs more stuff to get more buyers
So cool
F.B.I. 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
Am more of a technology geek and this is a great app.
Awesome
thaSHIT 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Great reviews and very handy app. And it's free! I recommend this 100%.
Great App!
TheBry 5.0 stars Version: 1.1
I've come to rely on Wired Product Reviews online, and this handy little app makes it very easy to find the product information I'm looking for -- and it's FREE! I've recommended this app to several of my friends. I'm hooked!
"Tired", Needs Updates!
Ted360 2.0 stars Version: 1.1
Tired: Searching for more content is a wast of time, i was going in circles just trying to locat the iPhone 3G, and wouldn't you know it wasn't in the "latest" or top "rated" cateigories. Plus videos are limited to about 20 and most of the time when you play a video it plays a different video and takes an F-ing 10min to load a 4min video! Wired: Video loads faster on Wi-Fi, (but still slower) and there are enough blogs to read. I Hope Wired fixed their bugs, but might as well go to there website till then.
This WAS good
HowBoutThatTide?! 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
It has a perfect interface and a decent amount of products. BUT APPARENTLY there are currently NO cell phones, laptops, desktops, or video game consoles on the market right now. I WISH this app worked, because I would be on it everyday. It's been long enough. TAKE SOME TIME AND UPDATE YOUR APP!!!!! At least make it do what it's supposed to do. Commit to your work. Stop being lazy.
Falling Apart
UncleScrotar 2.0 stars Version: 1.1
New reviews are few and far between these days, some of the review categories are completley void of life and to top it all off the blog is no longer responding. This app is a few days away from the delete button... Please fix.
Super awsome
Zomygodowned 3.0 stars Version: 1.1
I love the app and the blog is awsome but its gone and nothing is there for blogs would be a five until blog is fixed and app stops randomly crashing
Blogggggh
Yvtjft 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
Bring back the blogs folks!!!!
Blog is blank, not working properly
SoldierRob 3.0 stars Version: 1.1
I have come to like this app because of the tech blog, but it has stopped working. This leaves nothing else of value for me to keep it. It is also somewhat buggy.
Not working
DeformedGravy 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
There's nothing new anymore ( it's been like +3 months ) and some categories don't even work like the cellphone one.
