We compare the new Vonage Mobile free calling and free of charge texting app against the Skype app for iOS and Android in this episode. EachVonage and Skype provide apps for smartphones that allow you to communicate with other people utilizing voice or text for free, but the apps also have some important differences. For example, Vonage Mobile makes use of your existing contacts and address book, rather than requiring you to set up a new username, get a new phone number, and set up a entire new buddy list like Skype needs you to do. Also, Vonage Mobile doesn't need you to set up an account with them to spend for any off-network minutes like Skype, rather you just add your minutes proper from the App Retailer or Android Market place! An additional massive difference is that Skype delivers video chat, although Vonage Mobile is strictly for cost-free phone calls and free of charge texts in its present form. Check out the video for the complete comparison and rundown!
