In my case, this is one of the numbers I use for my business that involves calling a bunch of random people. I guess I could inniciate the call on Google Voice (which I also use for a business line) and have it ring Skype and pick up that way or use an app on my iPhone like GVConnect to again, iniciate the call with a ring back, but God what a pain.
I’m still on V 7.4 with the desktop client and for the most part use that, but this one time I needed to make a call from the phone… You swear.

I hope they fix this before I go away in April, because on my last cruise this became invaluable, using dial pad, when I had to straighten out a situation with my bank, plus, it’s saved money, since calling out otherwise on my iPhone would have been really expensive. I just submitted a scathing review on the App Store.

I hadn’t done this in forever and after familiarizing myself with the app again, I noticed that the dialpad doesn’t seem to be accessible with VoiceOver. Like I said, I hadn’t used it to make a call in forever so I don’t know if this is a recent issue or if it’s been something that’s been around for a while. Might there be some sort of configuration setting within the iOS app that can address this or is it really just wait until an update comes out that will hopefully fix it?
