I have been a loyal and happy GrandCentral user for quite a while now. I think it is a great service that has served me well.
So I was not worried when I recently decided to break down and buy an iPhone. I was/am a Tmobile customer with the Dash, but figured it was no big deal, I would just add my new iPhone number on my GrandCetnral account. This is the true beauty of the One Phone Number For Life.
Sounds great, right ? Well i have recently stumbled on to a small bug in the workflow for the iPhone. The other day I received an email on my iPhone saying I had a new GrandCentral voice message. I navigated mobileSafari over to the mobile GrandCentral page and logged in without an issue. The problem arises when trying to play the message. In a nutshell, it doesn’t. I am not sure what is happening but it basically comes up in a window and with a play arrow that is X out …. I had no issues with this on my Dash, it downloaded and played in the local Windows Media Player, but no such luck on the iPhone. Now if the iPhone only had Flash …. I could play my messages through the regular GrandCentral page, but no such luck there either.
It is very frustrating to be out and so connected, only to not be able to hear that voice message that you know is sitting there waiting for you.
Has anyone else had this experience ? Love to hear if you got around it.
