Why iPhone 4 Users Should get Fring
The iPhone 4 is certainly one handset that people love. Apple managed to sell 1.7 million units in just three days, which is a major retailing feat by any standards. Of course, there is more to the iPhone 4 than just the Apple brand (though it cannot be denied that that also served as a major factor in sales); the smart phone is indeed a device that lives up to the reputation of the iconic handset.
Aside from having organized folders, new customizable settings and multi tasking, the iPhone 4 also features a front facing camera. This new addition has been on the wish lists of Apple iPhone users since the 2G version came out. Now, about three years later, the feature has been added.
While we all celebrated the news when it was announced a couple of months back, the joy suddenly turned to disappointment after Apple suddenly announced the FaceTime app that would be limiting how users will be able to use the new front facing camera. Video chat is only enabled for WiFi networks, and only other iPhone 4 users can be contacted.
Not only was the new rule restrictive, but it basically made any reason for owning a handset with a front facing camera a moot point. The VoIP specialists of Fring however, had different ideas in their mind.
The new Fring app turns the Apple iPhone 4 into the handset that it is supposed to be –at least, in terms of video calling capabilities. Video calls can now be done on 3G and WiFi, depending on the preference of the user. Also the iPhone 4 will allow users to chat with Android and Symbian handset owners too.
This video chat app for the Apple iPhone 4 is already out and users can download it straight from the Apple iTunes store.
