CallBar : Change the way you receive calls!

Author: limneos  //  Category: News

Don’t let incoming phone or FaceTime calls interrupt what you’re doing on your device any longer. CallBar re-designs the incoming phone and video call interface to allow you to use your device while it’s ringing. Choose to answer, decline, or even dismiss the incoming call depending on your choice. Upon dismissal, the bar will shrink and cover the status bar – a safeguard just in case you choose to pick up the call after all or you accidentally dismissed. You can answer or decline the call from this dismissal view also. Dismissing the call silences the ring or vibrate, which is done by tapping the banner, hitting the Power  button, or pressing the Volume buttons. To re-enable the ring or vibrate, simply tap the banner to bring the banner back up. All the above functionalities are  available from the SpringBoard, within any application, and on the lock screen. You could be texting, updating Twitter, surfing the web, or in the middle of  using any application – CallBar allows you to continue what you are doing without interruption and gives you the option to handle the situation with ease.

* Compatible for both phone and FaceTime video calls

* Supports all iDevices on all firmwares (including iOS 5 betas – will support full version upon release)

* Settings for CallBar can be found in the Settings.app (excludes iOS 5 beta users – iOS 5 full version will support Settings)

    will this be compatible with mobilenotifier

  2. Joshua Tucker Says:

    Yes – CallBar is compatible with Mobile Notifier according to many users who have both.

  3. ruben Says:

    only thing not working really well is the fact that it ignores custom or personalized ringtones and vibrate is shorter

  4. Jo7n Says:

    how did I know they would want money for this?

    Of course, because it’s posted on the bigboss advertisement page. smh

    Not everything on the front page costs money

    I’m not sure what you’re complaining to..
    Developers of free tweaks don’t usually take the time to promote their creation so it would naturally be fitting to see motivated persons posting here. seems like a nice service to offer to the developers, whether it’s paid or not

    Yeah, same issue here. 4.3.3 j/b, and installed CallBar and *bam* – every time I get a call my phone gets kicked into Safe Mode.

  21. ct Says:

  22. Ajay Says:

  23. Anh Says:

    Working just fine on my i4, 4.3.2.
    However, it doesn’t ring on BT headet anymore.

  24. Christ Says:

    Bluetooth and custom ringtones completely bypassed. Price should really be lowered until these shortcomings are addressed…

  25. dj Says:

  30. amin Says:

    men i got sicl and tired wirh my iphone and i can’t remove safe mode please if any one can help me iam waiting::

  31. Sean Says:

    I downloaded it to my 3g and i have the exact same problem. Evertime someone calls it crashes springboard. Hopefully a solution comes out soon.

  32. Devil angle Says:

    Who can tech me?

  33. Dave Says:

    My compliments to the designer!! I like the idea of this app tremendously but I have an one major issue with it. I don’t want it to be active when the phone is locked because it blocks the use of the I’m Busy SMS app. I tried setting it so its turned off on the lockscreen and indeed it doesn’t show but neither does any other option to answer the phone. In fact it locks the phone up completely and I have to reboot in order to unlock it. Like I said tremendous app but unfortunately unusable for me at the moment.

    Cydia for my iphone

  35. Ramzi Says:

    Just purshase thé app but still crash my phone when i receive calls…fucking app

  36. ruben Says:

    on twitter they talked about new version – but nothing new for over a month – incredible for a non free app

  37. miniBUS Says:

    There are two things that need to be updated for this is be almost perfect.

    1. individual ringtones do not work as the default ringtone in settings is the only one that you can use.

    2. when headphones are plugged in or bluetooth is connect. there is no ringer through the external earpieces.

    i have purchased this so please come up with a fix soon.

  38. FIX THIS Says:

    1. Fix the custom ring and vibrate issue WERE PAYING FOR THIS

    2. Give us an option to stay in the app during the call. Whats the point of seeing who’s calling then answer and it disturbs what you’re doing!??

  39. Wtfer Says:

    Still Waiting on fixes, ugh……

    What Raul said. Crash, then safe mode. Every call. 3GS running 4.1.

  42. Anonymous Says:

    Mine doesn’t crash, but when you answer it the phone either continues to vibrate the whole time during the call and even when it’s over till it’s been respringed, or the ringtone will keep playing in the background. Had to uninstall it because of it, every call the phone would sit there and vibrate forever.

  43. Anonymous Says:

    Yup it so

  44. Steve Says:

    It cause conflict with iBlacklist. With normal iBlacklist, the block number will only vibrate. With Callbar, iBlacklist ring 1-2 second. After uninstall Callbar, iBlacklist work properly again.

    Also, on the lock screeen, I can’t use the power button to disconnect the call. I’m not sure it’s the problem with phone itself or the problem with ToneFXs1.0 (not the 2.0 that doesn’t work – aka trash).

  45. Dude Says:

    Finding it more and more obvious I shouldn’t have paid for this tweak and utilized a cracked version if it isn’t going to receive an update to fix the crash issue. Useless

  46. Juan Says:

    yup. same here. this tweak simply doesn’t work. crashes when a phone call comes in. Facetime calls are silent. 100% not compatible with ToneFXs and the developer has gone silent. Completely useless. I’m about to hit saurik up for a refund.

  47. vikrammudam Says:

    How to download and instal it?????

  48. pekosfin Says:

    It doesn’t work with iBlacklist! iBlacklist can’t block CallBar. The phone call still comes in and CallBar appears on top. However, iBlacklist does get it recorded in its log.

    Now I’m not sure whether it’s a problem with iBlacklist or CallBar. CallBar has otherwise been working properly on my i4 with 4.3.1 However, blocking some specific numbers is more important to me than the convenience of CallBar. :(

  49. DrJones Says:

    Mine doesn’t crash either (same as Anonymous above), but i get the same, when you answer, the phone either continues to vibrate the whole time during the call and doesnt stop till it’s been respringed, uninstalled it.. rather use EZDecline.. no problems in using that with Im Busy SMS.. and im running ios4.3.3 .. i wouldnt pay for apps without trying the cracked ones first

  50. Phil Says:

    Had the same exact problem. Initially got an email saying that it is being fixed but nothing has been done in over two months and the developers will not answer latest emails.
    I want my money back!

  51. Javani Says:

    Ok

  52. Kevin Says:

    Dear, i bought it before, then i remove it to test other apps, so now i cant found it in my big boss source, anyone can lend me a hand… I want it back to my phone

    You can now fix lost community sources by loading cydia, on home page tapping on “more package sources” and then at the top of the page, any lost community sources will be present. Tap on them to reinstall / fix them.
