Klondike5 1.0


Category: Entertainment
Price: $0.99 (iTunes)

Description:

If you're like me, you like nothing better than watching a great black & white noir film (the Maltese Falcon is permanently on my top 10 list). One of the best parts of these films is the the old-fashioned Bakelite telephones with the rotary dials. I grew up in West Virginia, and my grandparents had a rotary dial phone until the early 80s, so as a kid I logged plenty of hours having fun with the spinning dial. This was before cable, you understand.

To recreate that, I decided to build a rotary dialer that is as close to my grandparents' phone as I could make it. To get that film-noir feeling, the app will also give you a historically correct exchange name for the number you're dialing (if one exists), like PEnnsylvania 6-5000 (736-5000). Other features include:

+ Simulated dial tone.
+ Off-hook sound, if you take too long to dial!
+ Default area code, so you can dial seven digits for local calls.
+ Hang-up cancel button if you make a mistake dialing.
