Company Description

YouRoam is a mobile application that allows users to make and receive calls using their cell number anywhere in the world over WiFi or 3G.

YouRoam is a global communications company that enables you to make and receive calls anywhere in the world on your own cell phone number without paying outrageous roaming or long distance fees. Users can make and receive calls on their US phone number from anywhere in the world for $0.01/minute and text any phone in the US for 1.5 cents. If both people have the YouRoam app, users can call and text each other for free, as well as send videos, pictures, stickers, emoticons, share their location and send voice-memos. We launched 8 months ago and have grown to over 150,000 users from 165 countries (with less than $7,000 spent in marketing/PR/advertisement). More than just calling and texting, YouRoam seeks to disrupt the telecom market by becoming a users' primary choice for global communication by upgrading the user's standard dialer and default messaging program. YouRoam's dialer provides a superb calling experience by preloading the user's contacts, finding them on social media and integrating their pictures, status, calendar, etc. We provide a Smart Caller ID that shows you who is calling even if that person isn't in your phone book and are launching a social caller ID that will show you how you know the person calling and display their job, location and recent posts on social media. We are doing to voice calling what WhatsApp did to text messaging, or what Netflix has done to Cable TV.
