    Any networks in Ireland providing visual voicemail?

    I have some vague recollection of a big deal being made about it for the iPhone but I was wondering what people actually thought of it. Is it something there is demand for?

    I use hullomail for Android. (think its on iphone too)


    As I'm with three (who charge for voicemail on contract) it saves me a fortune!

    couldnt recommend it highly enough.

    Workaround: record video message, upload it to youtube, make it private, send them the link, delete it when it gets a view :p

    Not a bad app for free :)

    I developed a proof of concept app try out the new ICS visual voicemail api.
    Integrating with the native dialer is kinda neat but renting phone numbers is a bit too expensive to be practical.

    This is a super old thread, but are there any apps offering visual voicemail? I tried to use Hullomail, but when I open it I'm told to download YouMail. When I download YouMail, it doesn't have any Irish phone carriers in the list. Are there any other apps?

    Hullomail works well for me, it's subscription now.

    I used Hullomail for years and then it went Sub only. I now use InstaVoice, it's free and it works.
