Pervasip Corp.'s wholly owned subsidiary, VoX Communications (News - Alert), recently announced that it is now offering free usage of its mobile VoIP app for all Android (News - Alert) mobile phones and Android tablets.

VoX Communications is a premier provider of wholesale voice over IP telephone services for the residential and small business markets. Its subscribers can subscribe entirely on the phone without leaving the interface.

Users, with the help of the app, will be allowed to make 3G/4G and WiFi (News - Alert) calls on their Android device without using the voice plan minutes on their existing smartphone plan.

For consumers, wishing to call a phone number outside the VoX network, the mobile VoIP plans start at $4.95 per month.

VoX also provides 500 minutes of calling for $9.95, and $29.95 for unlimited calling to the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico.

In a release, Pervasip's chief executive officer, Paul Riss, said: "We have updated our Android VoIP app so that any Android user can download it, make free calls and send free text messages to others who have our app. Earlier this month, we launched our Android app and required a fee of $4.95 to sign up for services and receive a telephone number.

 “We had more than 1,000 downloads in the first week and many people want to try the free calling before they use our service for inexpensive calls to landlines or other mobile phones. We have adjusted the product so that anyone who downloads the app can now try it without making a payment."

Riss continued, "Free calls are also available from the Android device to an Ojo Vision Video phone that runs on the VoX network. We are very excited about the quality and multiple uses provided by the app, and we have already met with a tablet manufacturer to demonstrate how well the app works on an Android tablet."

In related news, VoX Communications has developed and deployed several video technology additions to its award-winning VoIP technology platform.
