Okay, one other thing. I just noticed that this only happens when I am typing in the recipient of an email. It doesn't seem to bother it in the subject or main body of the text I guess I could learn to live with it. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

It works just fine. Play a note, silence it, and let the iOS device tell you the pitch. You may need to increase your mic sensitivity. Also, be sure you allow the app access to the microphone, or it won't hear anything. On Oct 1, 2014, at 1:27 PM, mário navarro mario@gmail.com wrote: hi
