Good app but bought it ages ago had it on 3 diffrent phones. Not much been done . Needs some colour some work . Not been an update in long time worth anything. The maker should look at the one on ITunes that looks and feels better..update im now on galaxy 7 edge and still nothing done with this app. Looks like designer lost interest in it .. Pitty as it could be great .

To CBS - You've got some bloody cheek. This was a FREE download and now you have the nerve to CHARGE for it, when it hasn't been updated in 6 years! YES, 6 bloody years. On top of that, the dialer is something a 5 year old could have created. It's atrocious!!! For shame, CBS. For shame...

Make it useful! The look and SFX are perfect, but this app really needs some work. Since it's just an ordinary app instead of a full-featured home screen/launcher/shell, its limitations really stand out. When in use, the comm cover should be the set as the phone's lock screen, and the comm interior should be set as the phone's wallpaper. As others have pointed out, the voice-overs are fun once, but after that they're annoying. Drop them, or at least bury them in a sub-menu or something. Those buttons could be much better used for other functions (like launching voicemail, contact list, app menu, etc). I love the idea of using a flip to answer a call, but the accelerometer's too sensitive on my phone for that. Still, it should be an option. Why is it not possible to set this as the default phone app in Marshmallow? That alone would make the app see much more usage. Right now, it's just a toy with little to no practical use. Fix all of that, and I'd be willing to pay for it again. Maybe even at a higher price.

Animations are jerky. Very dull phone dialer. If I am not a Trekker myself, I will give it one star only.

SEARCHED for a non-ad star trek RINGTONE... and this was top of list. I bought & installed expecting to have a new ringtone to select for my S7... only to find I have this stupid APP, and NO ringtone to be found... So I feel duped, and want my money back.

Don't waste your money on this one. The free version is much better! The numeric sound effects(from TOS) that were on the free version have been removed. They should also be on the paid version. I subtract 2 stars on that account! Fix it please.....

You used to be able to pick all the different moires from the different comms, control the speed, etc. Now, no more. Still kind of cool, but I miss the additional stuff.

I always gets giggles and ahhhs from everybody when I use this app out in public. Cool concept for today's phones and a must for every trekkie and trekker fans out there. KEEPS THE FRANCHISE ALIVE in everyone's minds!

Y70%
by Y####:

I want it to be the first thing on my screen when I use my phone. It does so many cool things. Dialer, contacts, and original cast phrases. What more do you really need. And the thing with the swirling thing after you close the lid. That will make people go, what was that?

T70%
by T####:

The iphone version from this same publisher has a whole list of sounds you can play. While this app is fun, it is far from complete.

Y70%
by Y####:

Any time i can get my hands on something like this is great. The fact that the cover swings open lets you traditional kirk flick.

O70%
by O####:

When I 'flip' my ap/phone open and it makes that iconic noise everyone smiles or laughs or says "cool". Even my friends who are not star trek fans.

X70%
by X####:

Love everything EXCEPT that you can't choose which number to dial in a multi-number contact. At least on my phone....I select a name from the contact list and then it picks a number at random. :-(

D70%
by D####:

A great novelty but obviously we all want to flip open the 'lid' to answer our calls. Can you not make this program open when a call comes in then the flip animation answers the call?

Very cool app... Only problem is I purchased it for my Samsung Fascinate for which it is unfortunately not compatible. Does work on my Galaxy Tab though for what it's worth...

I am a dyed-in-the-wool Trekkie (What ever that means) and I really like this app. Great appearence and works well. So cool.

Z70%
by Z####:

Fun ap, would be great if the cover flipped up quicker. It's a bit laggy.

Y70%
by Y####:

Too simple but amusing. For a buck it's worth it for ten minutes till you realize it's not compatible with any cell phone. It only calls out at best.

It looks cool but I would like it to be more functional and actually do something. It is a dialer and that's nice but was else does it do that's functional? I could really do without the phrases from the show as it makes it seem like a baby toy. I would say get rid of the phrases and replace with something more worthwhile like actual functionality of some sort. There are plenty of good suggestions for you developers to consider in the comments.

If only it had the option to make it the default phone and a way to adjust the lid open sound for when it would be inappropriate, It would be a 5 star for me.

Y70%
by Y####:

Great fun!!! Love my new communicator. It would have gotten 5 stars and a perfect rating if it would just access the voice dialer when you 'open' it.

Always wanted one of these now its on my phone. Warp factor 2

Come on developers...READ these reviews and think! It can't be THAT difficult to develop this app as it SHOULD work. Develop an interface that works to use the communicator and all it's cool beeps and blips to ANSWER a call through the flip action. Pull the weak quotes out and put IN options like VM button, switch to text mode, voice recorder button, record call button...You know useful stuff. I'd pay 5 bucks for a real communicator app! GET TO WORK!!!

Works great. I mainly like the tweeting, and opening and closing of image cover. Now when I make a phone call I can have fun with the sound effects of it. I wish they could make the swirling affect do other things too, like radar-ish things, or digital readouts, or phone number dialing, or whatever creative things to bring out the imagination for us. Thanks for this app again-GREAT job.

R70%
by R####:

Agree with Linda and Laura. I'm a Trekkie. I just wish flipping it open would answer a call, and being able to use the sounds as a ringtone or other notifications.

R70%
by R####:

I think it would be better,as some people have posted,to develop this as a useful, real, Communication device,just like It was used on Star Trek.

C70%
by C####:

Played with it once thus far and I already got my money's worth. Now, if I can use those sounds in my notifications.....

N70%
by N####:

Thank you so much. Works perfect. A true geeky kind of thing. Only 1 dollar folks so you cannot expect a " real " working communicator. That takes research, algorithms, time, and MONEY to get what some are asking for. Be happy with this application.

S70%
by S####:

No ringtones or message alert tones to use. Great if you just want to push buttons and listen to random noises and quotes from the series. OK for kids on that basis but not worth paying for

S70%

I was looking for a phone ringer app where u can have your phone ring when calls come in like the sound u here with there communicator. U here sound like the sound of u bieng beamd up like then u here "kirk to interprise kirk to interprise come in." This is a toy and had high hopes. I guess i wasn't they only one foold by this. Im getting my refund NOW !!!

Y70%
by Y####:

The free one was better in the dial pad area with better tv series sound when numbers where touched and"working"when you hit the send/dial button. Just wish I could find the apk and who made it I had it till last week and forgot to save it when I switched phones

Love any thing Star Trek from Auckland New Zealand

Z70%
by Z####:

I really like this app being the trekie that I am... but I agree with others... I would pay more for real features... to have it cone up when I receive a call if I want... too have the communicator be my main ring tone etc. Is there still development going on this app?

K70%
by K####:

Love this app, especially the flip antenna grid. I hope the upgrades come with flip-answering-contacts in small screen. .

A70%
by A####:

This APP is pretty cool. I do agree with the others, needs to be able to answer the phone by flipping open and be able to talk to the person threw the communicator. That would be awesome and feel more like a real device.

B70%
by B####:

Does just what it promises, looks phenomenal, andj let me show everyone in my office exactly how much of a total geek I am. Great fun and highly satisfying nerdgear.

Z70%
by Z####:

Its nice, but could be nicer if it would do voice calling and let you answer phone using flipping motion and auto speaker phone.

Z70%
by Z####:

incredible app and I love the voices from the original show. Next best thing to having a real communicator :-)

Z70%
by Z####:

All it needs is for screen not to lock and stay on in com mode and to do comm beep when someone phones u and be able to answer when flip lid.
