The app is called VoiceMan, and it seems to me that it has a lot of potential to help you monitor just how much your voice calls cost you. With the iPhone, you can do practically everything and more often than not, it is the data usage that gets people in trouble. At least that’s the prevailing idea. Hence, people do pay a lot of attention to their data usage, sometimes at the cost of forgetting about the voice calls. (Of course, if you have unlimited plans, this is not a problem. But how many people actually do have unlimited minutes?)
With VoiceMan, you can easily monitor your voice minutes without having to check with your provider all the time. The app allows you to set your daily, weekly, and monthly usage limits. You can also specify the bill date.
That’s the default settings, so I had to change things to match my bill date and minutes.
Here, you can see that I have set the limits to low figures, especially for the daily one. I did this on purpose to see what would happen if I exceeded the limit.
Sure enough, after I had a 5-minute conversation with my sister, I got a notification immediately after hanging up.
Over time, you can also monitor just how much you have exceed (or not) your limits.
For only $3.99, I think that VoiceMan is worth purchasing and using, especially if you tend to get carried away talking on the phone.
