Your contacts only need to download Libon for free from the App Store to begin
enjoying free HD crystal clear calls between each other, all you need is 3G or Wi-Fi
connections.
Free messages
Libon's instant messaging is as easy to use as SMS.
Conversations - not just calls
For each of your contacts, Libon summarizes your recent conversations, pulling into
one place instant messaging, calls, and voicemails so you can have insightful contextual
communications.
Best personalized voicemail: make your callers feel special
Libon's voicemail offers advanced features including customized greetings for
individuals or groups, and text transcription of voicemails*.
You don't speak the same way to your partner, your family, your colleagues or your
customers so Libon lets you sort your contacts into groups, each group hearing a different
greeting message. Callers are recognized by their name and even receive your location, if
part of a trusted group. Greetings may integrate your last tweet or Facebook status to
dynamically update the greeting message*.
For when it's not convenient, there's no need to listen to voice messages, Libon
converts voice messages to text. And with Libon you don't even have to record greetings,
just type them in Libon and choose a voice from our voice library*.
Never lose anything
Contacts, conversations, messages - everything is saved and synched in our cloud. Lost
your phone? Just download Libon on your new handset and find everything in its place.
Free...
A free version of Libon is available with free HD calls and text messaging between
Libon users, a visual voicemail with greetings customization for up to 3 different
contacts or groups of contacts, Text-to-speech functionality*, voicemails transcription
for Libon contact messages*, iPhone and email notification of missed voicemails received,
etc....
...or upgrade to Premium
In all 90 countries, users can opt for the Premium option. This in-app subscription
provides unlimited customized greetings, full-length transcription of all voicemail
messages*, unlimited storage and email copies of all voicemails. In addition, Libon offers
its Premium users a full hour of international calling every month to landlines or mobile
numbers in 31 countries (non available in Spain, Slovakia, Romania, Belgium, Luxemburg,
Dominican Republic, Armenia, Moldavia) - allowing users to use or experiment with Libon
even with friends or family who don't yet use it.
All this combines to make Libon the most powerful communications app available today.
In 2013 Libon will be RCS services compatible (chat & group chat, files transfer,
On-call content sharing). Orange is convinced that RCS standard embedded in the handsets
and in downloadable applications is a key factor for the rapid expansion of this standard
built under GSMA supervision.
