Update is screwing up!!

Hey. This was great when I first got it. A lot of fun. But since the update where this can auto dial from my contacts list is not working. If I dial the # myself It is only allow 3 numbers to dial then is goes buserk. Not working please fix before I delete.

Update

Please fix! Dials after 3 digits are dialed every time

Automatically dials after 3 numbers?

Cute idea but, for some reaon, this tries to connect after Ive dialed 3 numbers... Went to the website but dont see a way to get support...

Good and absurd

Absolutely ridiculous. Works good.

Update bug

Update is screwed up. Dials after three numbers and the rotary doesnt always rotate. I too hope it gets fixed soon Update - . Bug is fixed. App is now great fun again. I went back to 4 stars

Awsome

This app works it is awsome!!!!!!!!!

Great fun

This retro phone is not a regular rotary dialer. It rotate the numbers 4 u!!!

Not bad but needs work

The dialer should stop when you hit the dial stop bar. The scraping sound it makes when you first touch the screen is odd. You should hear the sound of gears sliding past one another as you dial. The image of the phone from the 1940’s should be replaced with a good old standard AT&T rotary phone from the 1970’s, after all phones from the 70’s/80’s are what you are basing this app on and how many people who recall using a phone from the 1940’s are using an iPhone.

A must Buy!!!!!!!!

Great sound, great graphics, smooth and works incredibly well. I am having great fun with this app. This reminds me of my childhood , before the touch-tone phones took over telphony.The authentic dial sound is awesome!!!

help please help

i cant change de skin because when i try to do this message opens... skin setting: please close and open iretrophone to apply this. how do i do that please help i really like this app. you can answer me in my email address pleaseeeeee.

Love it!

Made this my default dialer. Only drawback is no favorites feature for frequently dialed numbers.

Suggested Options

Good job on simulating the sound of a phone booth dial—it was much too harsh before the update. It would be nice to have the sound of a good quality residential rotary phone (a softer sound) and a skin to match. otherwise, still a fun app that never gets deleted, even though seldom used. :)

Not as good anymore

New design is much less retro and cool looking. And there is no longer any way to personalize the dial center like you could in the earlier version.

Needs paper slip

Please bring back the paper slip that you can insert your phone number into. That was the only thing that set this apart from all of the other dialers out there.

why?

why ruin a good thing? the app was great, before... before the update with slick/bland graphics. please, at least for those of us who purchased this for the retro phone look, give us the option of retaining that look.

Not so retro anymore.

This was a fun app until the recent update, which stripped most of the retro look from the dialer.

Disappointing

Ive had this since the OG iPhone and was just playing with it today. I miss the strip of paper with my number on it and I would like to see more dials like a straight black Western Electric, a Trimline (with back light), a UK style, and perhaps the original TouchTone with tone and button press. This is still better than ones that cost more.

False advertising

I thought the paper strip had been reintroduced as it is listed in the features of the app.

New version ruined the app

This app was all about the look, and you broke it. The old black actual retro look, with the paper slip in the dual with our number, is gone to be replaced by bland graphics as no dial center. I dont use this anymore. Please return to the old look and Ill use it again.

Bait and Hook

Beware price shows as $.99 but you will get charged $4.99!
