I Wish It Would Just Go To Voicemail…Wait, Really?
Ever have someone you have to get a message to but when you get them on the phone, they talk your ear off? Usually about how wicked awesome their weekend in Vegas was, or how many times their cat choked up a hair ball the size of a mango? Then we have an app for you!
Simply dial 267-SLYDIAL (267-759-3425) from any land line or mobile phone. At the voice prompt, enter the U.S. mobile phone number of the person you want to slydial. You will be directly connected to their voicemail. Leave them that voicemail without finding out about their new boyfriend who used to be a backup drummer for Whitesnake! Yay!

genius.
Not just for dodging the yackety-yackers of the world, slydial is an excellent way to relieve the other party of the burden of answering your call. You may know that they are in an appointment or meeting, spending family time, driving the car, trying to chillax, just plain busy, etc. Rather than force them to deal with the distraction of an inopportunely ringing phone, you've given them the gift of a succinct voicemail that they can listen to when they have time. Slydial is a wonderful alternative to the time suck of couching the information you need to exchange in the niceties/banalities of a civilized, two-way conversation. DId I mention they have both a free and a premium version? Yay, slydial!!
