Description

YouView makes your voicemail experience simpler! YouView organizes voicemails like emails and displays all your voicemails in an easy to access list. Now you don’t have to listen to all your voicemails before you get to the one you want to hear! With YouView, you can see who called, from where and check that message without listening to all the other ones.  You can also easily save or forward your voicemails to share them with other people. Simply put, YouView makes your voicemail, and your life, a little easier!

**EVEN MORE INCLUDED**

YouView is a visual voicemail client that’s powered by YouMail for WebOs devices. YouView will replace your carriers voicemail with YouMail's digital secretary.  

*ORGANIZE* Stay organized by placing voicemails into folders. Set reminder notifications. Share voicemails with family, friends, or colleagues via text or email. Flag voicemails that need to be followed up so you don’t forget.  SAVE TIME: – Play messages in any order! Tap to play or swipe to delete.

*CUSTOM GREETINGS* Easily have different greetings for your friends, your co-workers and your boss. Choose from a library of free greetings or upload any sound file as a greeting. Automatically hang up on unwanted callers or easily let a pesky ex or telemarketers think your number is no longer in service.

*CONDENSE ALL YOUR VOICEMAIL INTO ONE* Using the dropbox feature, access all your voicemails from YouView including Google Voice, Magic Jack, Vonage, & more.

*VOICE-TO-TEXT TRANSCRIPTIONS* (monthly fee applies) - Know if a message truly is urgent in situations when you can't simply dial or answer your phone. Read and respond to voicemail messages while in a meeting, class, movie or other busy setting.

*COMING SOON* Effortlessly sync your YouMail contacts with your phones contact list using Palm’s Synergy technology.

I love this app, i had on my black berry. Now I love more on my pre.

is this price for the year or 1 month ?

The app itself costs a one time fee of $3.99, and every feature is included but the "Voicemail-to-transcript" part.

It's a great app though nonetheless.

everything is free but the visual voicemail translation. The ability to have custom voicemail greetings is priceless.

very nice....

next to web browser and email this is my most used app.

Ive had it since the very first beta release and it rocks.

Not in the UK, why?

Does anyone know if this is a technical reason?

yep, sadly not in UK :(

Not available in Canada either. Sigh. I really wanted to get this app...

love this app,especially when its working.

Has anyone had any problems with the contact sync? not sure if I should try it.

It gives a warning before hand, and I found it to be funky. I haven't tried it lately though.

good app just couldn't figure out the contact sync only syncs one contact and just sits there, but other than that I love it.

I agree with the very positive reviews of this app. I hesitated for months to buy it because... I don't know why, I just did. Was I ever wrong for waiting!

YouView is awesome! Don't know how I mucked around with Google Voice and regular voicemail for as long as I did. I'll never go back.

Also, the service is free. The only monthly fees are if you choose to upgrade, which I did. I get unlimited transcription for $9.99/month. Totally worth it. I now have in-app transcription that works flawlessly.

A No-brainer.

I can't believe we've gone this long without a google voice app. :( I still use google voice, but I have to either sign in through the website or look at the email thats sent to me when I get a voicemail. I know voice to text transcription might be a little better with youview, but for $10/month, I'm willing to deal with jumbled translations. I really hope we get a working google voice app soon.

You know that you can setup YouMail to work with google voice for voicemail right?

ok, I personally dont see how this won. I am getting ready to go back to sprints VM...

my alerts DO NOT happen like I have them set to and the app NEVER tells me I have a voicemail whether or not the app is left running and i get the email AND text so I know my phone is getting a notification from somewhere as well as my email is..

this app rocks. Maybe try removing then reinstalling? (dont worry, you don't have to pay again)

The developer is very active on the message board and this problem has been discussed. It is the same problem that effects a number of other apps that are supposed to work in the background like the weather icon. When the phone resets, YouView (and other background apps)are not automatically being restarted and you have to run it one time. After that it will continue to give the notices until next time phone resets. Of course the problem is that you may not know your phone is reset. To solve this I have YouMail send me an text alert as well. That way if I get a text alert without a YouView alert, I know the phone reset on me at some point.

The developer hopes that 1.4.5 will solve the problem or at least give them the tools to solve.

i've been using it for a while now, alerts do not always come through unless you open the app. I have it email me when I get a new message, it's more reliable.

I also wish they would do something with the volume, it's very low...although fine through an ear piece, but speaker is bad. Contacts also do not merge. But now that they won $100k, maybe they'll invest in fixing it.

5 stars

this app is amazing. I love it, and the personal greetings to the callers is cool, people like it. Today I uploaded my custom Old Spice Guy voicemail greeting easily from youmail website. Mustafah is the man. Want your own, google it

it is pretty cool, but google voice does basically the same thing and it's free

Using Google Voice via forwarding you current phone number (as opposed to getting a new GV phone number) stopped working for many many people at the first of the year. Since I have to keep my phone number for business reasons, GV transcriptions were no longer an option.

The YouMail transcriptions I found were also a much higher quality than the GV ones.

I've love YouMail for years! The app works great! I started using it purely for the ditchmail feature. You can have certain numbers be unable to leave you a message! Awesome! And you can have different greetings for people but keep a more professional general greeting. I haven't tried the contact sync because it is still in beta but downloading and listening to messages works great!


My notifications for my phone in general have been wonky since at least the last OS update. I don't get all my text or call notifications. I have to check them periodically, so it's not just the YouMail app.

this app sounds amazing! I never knew it could do all of that! Sounds better than anything I have heard of. And to consolidate all of your voicemails from different numbers/sources.... That's crazy. And custom vmail greetings... A way to ignore someone and deny them the chance to leave you a voicemail!!?? You can tell I'm just astonished, I must have been under a rock regarding the Homebrew community. Wow, honestly.

So the question is though, you get all of this when you get the app, forever, and the only thing you need a subscription for is the transcription? I'm teling everyone to buy this in that case, $3.99... this is cool.

Cool that you're highlighting apps, but lame that you're literally cutting and pasting the app description from Palm's catalog.

Couldn't you at least make it easier to read by breaking it into paragraphs?

+1

got this app while it was on sale last month...really adds a whole new dimension to the pre

bummer, its paid.

This is my second favorite app (after powernap :) )and is great even without the paid voice to text transcription. You can set custom VM greetings (and there are a ton of free funny ones on the YouMail site), block people and numbers, group your contacts and more. The transcription service (which is charged by YouMail, not the YouView app guys) does cost, but is well worth it to me

only thing missing is the option to quickly text "please call" with option 2 on sprint. many of my caller use that feature.

Question: It seems like I can only listen to VMs via the speaker, it doesn't play through the earpiece (ie., holding the phone to my ear). I use a Plantronic Bluetooth and VMs aren't played through that. How can I get it to do this? Any help appreciated!!
