Opinions on VR+ Voice recorder?
I'm new to the BlackBerry - looking to add functionality.
Any opinions on the VR+ voice recorder software by Shape Services? Is it the best for this function? Are there others I haven't found? Are others better? Thank you. |
you looking for someone to pay YOU to install their software?
of course it's good, it records and its free |

The free version works fine. I paid the fee because the price was reasonable and you can send a recording via email and even send a link to a URL where the other party can go to listen to the message. As far as whether it's the best program out there, I have no idea. |
link?

Sorry. Only saw the $20 copy on handango. Going to look for the free one. Thanks. |
Can someone help? I have an 8300 with about 11Mb free. When I try to record I get a message saying I have less than 5mb free and need to free up space in the folder. I created a special folder for this application and it is empty.
Any ideas? |

Shape Services got back to me this morning and gave me instructions on how to "set a category" to a recording. So, it was "operator error". The program works fine for me.
As for jsanchez, the program IS free. The $20 fee is ONLY if you want to be able to email recordings. |
I also purchased VR+ recently. It works pretty well, except that if only GPRS is available, it takes a while to send the voice recording via email.
What surprised me was that when I sent a voice recording to another BB, the recipient cannot hear the voice recording. This means that only if the recipient is using a PC, will he able to hear the voice recording sent by email. Is this a bug, or am I missing something? |
I downloaded VR+ from shapeservices web site assuming it was v2.1.2. The trial download of the site is actually v2.1.0. Works great. Loved it, decided to purchase it and did so.
So purchased download link was for 2.1.2, so I thought cool. Tried to install it via desktop and get an error. oh, joy. install it OTA and installs fine. except v2.1.2 has so many bugs. 1) It won't automatically record on start up anymore, even though the setting is set to YES. it always gives a confirmation screen. ugg. **UPDATE: This is a bug for sure as there is no way around it ** 2) Auto save the file doesn't work. After recording and you hit the space bar to stop it just sits there for as long as you let it until you hit the esc key and then finally it will write the file. Doesn't matter if it is a 1kb or 100kb file.**UPDATE: ok, yes it does, it is just the button function is what it was suppose to be. space for start and pause. esc for stop. when you hit stop it auto saves it. thumbs up :) ** 3) When you go and delete a recorded file and hit delete, you can no longer hit the 'Y' key but have to select yes instead. **UPDATE: no big deal on this one ** And to top it all off my purchased registration key won't work in either version. **UPDATE: Within 24 hours the issue was resolved and I was provided an new registration code. Thumbs up!!! ** Using and 8310 curve on rogers network with 8310 OS Version 4.2.2.176 Mike |

You need to edit security permissions on your Blackberry. 1. Open Options/Security/Application Permissions 2. Select VR+ 3. Select Edit Permissions from the menu 4. Configure the Security Permissions to "Allow" for all categories. 5. Save the changes Then please try to use VR+ once more. Victoria SHAPE Support Team |

Product is great - customer service is terrible
Product is really good - and if you want this functionality I don't think there any too many options.
However, I've been having problems sending some files - which is how they get converted to MP3 format - and the support from the customer service team is very slow (2-5 day delay in responses) and they seem to not be able to track their previous requests to me (as they just keep asking me to do the same things over and over again.) They are polite and are trying - but clearly the process is broken and there does not appear to be any way to contact them except e-mail. Buyer beware if you have problems! |

I would love to see you add a function to record telephone conversations. I tried it and it will record my voice (of course) but not the other person.
Sure there are some technical 'legal' issues with this, but it would be a great function!!!! |

I find your product confusing. I thought it was free provided yuou are not trying to email recorded messages. Now, however, there appears to be a charge for the product period. Will you please clear this up.
