Annoyingly stupid: NO UPDATES!

It seems ridiculously hard to update this software once you bought it. You simply CAN'T download updates from the developer's site, only a demo version which you cannot unlock with your registration code.
So what do you do when a new version comes out (like 2.3 now, which supports voicemail sync)? Well, you're supposed to get an automated email from the developer. This happened to me once (when 2.2.1 came out), but not for any subsequent version. There isn't an update check funcationality within the software, either. I already complained to the developer, who replied by offering to send me another download link. Would I have to go through this each time the app is updated?
So BEWARE of buying this, until the developer fixes this stone age approach to customer service and product support.

Two of the most Missed features on my iPhone (were) Call Log and Text -SMS Log . Just for these features I would buy this software , but it has many other cool tricks ! just try it for your self I don't know about the jail broken phones but I've had no problems It does give you access to a lot of inner files and warns you not to mess with them if you don't know what your doing . I don't . So I don't ! You can view your Photos listen to your music , view your contacts . I'm surprised its not more sung ! I say check it out. Peace
Shame on Apple for disallowing something that was useful from the first iPod onwards, shame on Apple for hiding content and information from their rightful owners. Thank you PhoneView for opening a gap in that walled garden, that our preferred company has invented to maximize their profits.
DRM helps to screw those who pay, while those who don´t haven´t got any problems.
I constantly have space left that is not covered by musinc, only using PhoneView lets me reclaim back that real estate.
