Costly Calls Getting You Down? talkFree App Review
December 5, 2009 | Cody Buchanan

I know first hand the dilemma that faces millions of iPhone users everyday, going over on your minutes or texts because you don’t know which of your friends has AT&T. I hate the end of the month, having to face up to the phone bill and see just how much I’ve gone over my allowed usage. Sure, we try to keep track of it throughout the month, however it always seems to wriggle out of our hands. Well the best way to avoid going over is sticking to the free phone calls, otherwise known as the people who also have AT&T. And a new app called talkFree can tell you exactly who those people are.
The apps function is pretty basic yet incredibly useful. Once you download it from the app store, all you do is allow talkFree to scan your contact list. It will then mark each contact you can talk to absolutely free with an (iN) symbol. The scan takes just a few minutes and seems to be one hundred percent accurate. You can also input a number not in your contact list to check if its free or not, and the app will either respond with “free minutes” or “eats minutes”.
Although the app has only one basic feature, it’s still worth checking out. At $.99 some might consider it too high, but when you think about how much money it could potentially shave off of your phone bill it’s a bargain. So if your looking to better manage your bill, check out talkFree today!
Verdict: 4/5 Stars
