Bobsled

Description of App

Free calling between Web, iPhone/iPod/iPad, and phones. Bobsled by T-Mobile lets you call any phones, Web, and iPhone/iPad/iPod, wherever they are.

Reach your friends on their desktop or mobile device with Bobsled. No need for your friends to download anything to receive your calls!

Simply tap on a friend to call them. Bobsled will find them on Facebook or their iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch, and connect the call. If they are not there, send a Facebook chat message right from the app. Always stay connected with your friends.

Listening to a rockin’ band and want to share the love but not interested in chatting live? Or maybe you’d like to record and send your boyfriend a Happy Birthday message? No problem - Bobsled lets you record a Voice Message and post it to your friend’s Facebook wall.

And your friends can also reach you on Bobsled, either from the Bobsled browser app or their Bobsled Mobile app.

Bobsled is a new way to communicate centered around your social circle. Today, that means one-touch calls with or without phone numbers wherever your friends may be. Expect great things in future releases, including video calling and support for new devices.
