What exactly does this mean? Still can’t find it on the App Store!

@Justin
It’s a demo video…it means we are getting closer to you being able to download it! Hopefully Apple will approve it this week.

Lust.

Sean.. What’s your PayPal. I want this app!

AAAHHHHHH!!!! GIVE IT TO ME NOW!!

Critique

First of all love the app. However, I’m a photographer so here’s the suggestion. He needs to drop down the light source coming from the right 1 or 2 stops. It is over exposing his hand on the right side and creating a yellowish brownish shadow on the left side of the iPhone. Use another light source on the left to balance.

Looking forward to the download!

I was wondering what was going on. Tried refreshing the page on the big blank space under Enjoy! and saw an Adobe Flash context menu. Apparently the office proxy has foiled me again.

Sean, very excited about this app. Good work, again.

Damn I can’t wait. Nice marketing…

Great demo video. Really well done. Wish I had it already!

Great video!

Here’s a new feature request… I was reading about an Android version of GV Dialer, and it provides 2 ways to dial out, both of which use your GV# on caller id. The first option is what you have now (GV calls you back). The second option allows you to take advantage of the “press 2 to dial out” option on your voice menu, but automates the whole process. Just click a contact name, then your phone dials GV, and passes along the contact’s number.

@Bryan This feature is already in the works. It’s actually done, I’m just holding out until the first version is released.

Sean, this looks great. Can’t wait to try it.

Am I understanding Bryan’s feature request? Is he asking for VOIP on the iPhone via Google Voice? And you’re saying you can do it?

@Jasmer

I totally agree with your critique. The lighting could have been much better. I was, however, doing it very “low budget.” In fact, I used no video lights at all for the filming — only room and window light. I was quite impressed with what I could get with only a piece of colored paper, an iPhone, and a tripod as my materials. It was an experiment for me, so I really do appreciate any and all critiques on the video.

The reason there is some yellowness to the shadow is that I did mix lighting colors. If I were doing this as a paid project rather than an experiment, I would definitely have done a few things differently — with lighting at the top of that list (first and foremost, actually using lights!).

Does anyone else have any comments on the video? I was thinking of offering to do these for other iPhone developers for pay, if this one serves Sean well. I’d love o hear what the app-buying public thinks of this kind of video.

Its fantastic!! I love you, man

@Andrew Warner He was actually referring to a method of dialing someone without sending a ‘call’ command to Google via the internet. This method involves dialing your GV #, then pressing 2, and then the number you want to dial.

I think this app should have been approved before Grand Dialer app was disabled. I use this as my business number and it has been aggravating without the app. I will be purchasing this app the day it is available! And from the video, looks like I will be able to do so much more than I ever expected.

@Jasmer As Adam stated, he did this on a $0 budget. I think he did an excellent job.

Sean,

Are you going to be making a Blackberry app like this? That would be AMAZING!!!

If not do you know of anyone who is?

Thanks

This app ROCKS! Great job on the app Sean and great Video too! I cannot wait to get this!

Can’t wait. Thank you thank you thank you!

Can’t wait for this! One feature suggestion: how about an equivalent to the Favorites function on the iPhone (which I use all the time): I know you can’t double tap, but an option that the first screen of the App would bring up a Favorites screen for immediate dialing of often called numbers. Is this even possible? Thanks again; I’ll be buying this the day it comes out.

Adam very well done, congrats.

Sean the app looks great also just waiting!!!!

@Bob Garon I think there is a simple program for the BlackBerry that allows you to dial via your GV #. I will explore other phone platforms once the one for the iPhone is off the ground.

Sean,
GV mobile will it be available on the Canadian Apple Store?

New apps are out! and still no GV Mobile… “Son of a”.

Yes definitely you did a good job. No question you should do this for other iPhone developers but you have to have a perfect prototype first. You want to snag the clients with the most money and those clients expect the best. Lights are fairly cheap to rent or maybe you could borrow some. You only really need two. The rest of the video was top notch. Keep up the good work!@Adam Weiss

I totally agree! @sean

@Dimitri Yes – I did not limit GV Mobile to the U.S. mainly because I know a lot of international users use Google Voice (somehow).

@Jasmer
Thanks, Jasmer. I actually have lights and reflectors (I am a photographer as well), but I was doing this “fast and cheap,” so I didn’t set them up. Now I wish I had, with the video at the top of Gizmodo this morning!

Looks great! Can’t wait to see it in the App Store…

any ideas on when this is going to be approved? any ideas on the cost of the app?

@noeforts cost is $2.99 for Premium. Hope to hear from Apple this week.

Anyway to make this work with skypeout?

In philadelphia we have wireless almost everywhere, so I can use skype on wifi almost everywhere, so you can see why I could use it to work with skype. I see some reasons why it can not work with it, comments?

Sean. Apparently another Google Voice App got approved. It hit the app store this morning. It costs more than your app at $9.99. It is not nearly as functional as your app. Wonder when this one was submitted to the app store for approval.

@NextLevel I sure people have figured out hoops to jump through to get this to work.

@MarkC A $10 price tag for something JUST LIKE GrandDialer AND my FREE version, I am NOT worried.

Still no word from apple?

@Quash Maybe today – it’s still early.

Hopefully you hear back today and possibly get a release of one or both of your apps. With GVdialer being released I don’t see why they would deny you.

@Jason My app has more functionality to deny…who knows. A release today would be a nice treat for you guys.

So I just received an email saying GV Dialer was released. Went to the app store and it was 9.99 and it looks a little different than yours. Is this the real deal or a spoof by someone else?? There website is http://www.dialer.com???

@Matt This is the real deal. You can buy a GrandDialer clone (only has dialing abilities) for $10 right now. Go for it!

@Matt Oh – and it’s NOT my product.

@sean
Well I am holding out for yours. Is yours going to be free? That one on the app store doesn’t look nearly as good as yours. Plus you can’t text. Still no word from Apple?

Sean,
Can’t wait for your app. I just got the notice for GV upgrade. In as much as I want to upgrade I want to continue to use my iPhone app (Grand Dialer) until yours is out so I think I’ll wait a few more days before I upgrade.

One Suggestion for your app (next version): Can you put a local area code in the settings? That way if you are manually dialing a local number (seven digits) you don’t have to enter the local area code (all ten digits).

@Paul Good idea

Still not up.

Sean, any update when in the app store?

@Jake Nothing from Apple. If things get worse, I’ll have to post some dirty secrets about Apple that I’ve discovered.

Why can’t the application automatically answer the phone when the call comes in from Google Voice?

Also, why can’t I have a list of numbers that I don’t want to use GV? You could even make this a pattern – for example any number beginning with 202 would not trigger Google Voice but would place the call directly.

got it from cydia how do i get a user name and all getting error for credentials
