The application even works across multiple platforms, so users can call friends with a single-camera iPhone 3GS, or those on phones with Android or Symbian operating systems.Īccording to Fring, its service also allows Fring users to communicate with friends on third-party networks such as GoogleTalk, SIP, Twitter and Skype. Skype competitor Fring also offers VOIP services, and on July 9 introduced an application that lets iPhone 4 owners enjoy two-way video calling over WiFi or 3G networks. In addition to using WiFi, calls can also be placed over AT&T’s 3G network, though the company said “operator data charges” apply. Skype’s popular VOIP application for iPhones, iPads and the iPod Touch allows users to exchange calls and IMs with other Skype users around the world. Also new-users can continue a Skype call while switching to another application. Released July 21, the newest version of the application takes advantage of the operating system’s multitasking capabilities, enabling users to run Skype in the background, as well as receive Skype calls and instant messages while other applications such as e-mail are running or the phone is locked. Skype has launched Version 2.0.1 of its voice-over-IP software for iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS handsets running iOS 4.
