So I basically got 2 apps for the price of one - best $0.99 I ever spent. Someone already did a talking caller id app – works great for me.

Though I have suggestion/request. How about adding talking caller ID using Text-To-Speech library from Android market. (http://code.google.com/p/eyes-free/wiki/TTSLibraryExplanation) It would be great if your app would scan Phone Contacts and use the name to announce caller name. Anyway thanks Caller Id.

That information is generally not published. It will only get the location of the cell caller. Starting the app when you power on is not implemented yet. I didn’t think it would be urgent for this release as most people don’t turn their phone off much. Most people just plug it in at night. Thanks for the good feedback though!

Works perfectly! I’ve heard it doesn’t give you people’s cell number but have not had the opportunity to try that out. I did have a question - is there a way to just turn it on and leave it on? So that when you turn off your phone you don’t have to turn it on again? Hey this is a great app! Works perfectly!
