Neat idea

I think it's a sweet concept and idea but connecting to my game center friends wasn't as easy as it explains it..everytime my friends would hit accept my call it would still show declined on both our ends..then the only way it did connect was when I went into game center itself and clicked on game phone, only then did it work but not through the app itself. One of the main reasons I d/l the app was the option to text chat but apparently when u "call a friend" u can switch from text to phone BUT they can still hear ya talking which defeats the purpose of text chatting if ur on a call with them regardless..the other thing is the "MUTE" button..normally on ANY mute button it mutes YOU the person hitting the mute button, no muting the person ur talking too..if I pressed mute, it would mute them and not me so they were still able to hear me. So eat do you do? Tell the person ur talking too "hey can u mute me on ur end so u don't hear wats going on my end"? That don't make a dam bit of sense. Overall I think it's a neat idea and concept and I'm sure they could an should later add even more features with later updates..oh btw, the call quality was amazingly good..very clear and even better quality than using my iPhone itself. So kudos on that. Maybe a bit more detail on how to hook up with your game center friends bc doing it the way you guys explain in the help section wasn't the way I was able to hook up with friends. Oh and also fix the mute button to the correct way and allow for text chatting without having to be on a call with someone. But u guys got something going here..just need to add some more appealing features and you guys will be golden.
Good app

It's a good app to talk to your buddies on Game Center. But it needs some improvements.
