Google Android Phone

First VoIP Application for Roaming and International Calls on Google Android Platform.

VOXOFON, the internet telephony service offering the widest range of options for low-cost international calling, has become the first VoIP company to provide service for the new Android platform built by the Open Handset Alliance. The new service, which offers transparent cost optimization for roaming and international calls, will be available for use on Android phones when they become available later this year.

“The VOXOFON application on an Android phone will help users save money on international calls without any extra steps on their part.  They can simply place calls on the phone as usual, using the phone’s address book or keypad, and VOXOFON will just sit in the background and re-route the international calls. It’s the perfect add-on for anybody calling or traveling abroad.”  - Alexey Goloshubin, president and CEO

Beginning at 1.3 cents per minute, with no additional fees, VOXOFON international calling services allow customers to call using their computer, their land line, their cell phone or a smart phone. The company already offers an iPhone web application with a familiar user interface and a way to manage contacts, with no downloading or installation.

For calls from a PC, there is no need to download any special software, and VOXOFON works on both Windows and Linux systems with Java runtime installed. For calling card users, VOXOFON customers can use their accounts as virtual calling cards. And for customers without access to a computer, VOXOFON even offers local phone numbers in 54 countries, allowing customers to make international calls while paying the local rate. All VOXOFON services are available under a single account, providing customers with the flexibility to use the service they find most convenient.
