Rseven Use Scenario #1: Who is this Tina/Dave?

Do you sometimes go through your phonebook and find a contact that you can’t recall who it is? Where did I meet this person? How did she/he get into my phonebook? With Rseven you can quickly recall just by looking at the Conversation tab, to see when you last spoke or text this person. And by reading the messages or listening to the recorded calls, you should remember who it is.

If that doesn’t help, go to the Timeline on the date you first spoke/messaged with the contact & look through the messages, calls or pictures taken around that time. Maybe it was at a particular conference or at a bar/club/party/event you were at.

If you still can’t remember, than maybe you don’t want to keep that contact in the phone. Use the Contact Manager to set that contact to Inactive and it will be deleted from the phone but stored in the Inactive tab.

All About Symbian Reviews Rseven

Rseven was reviewed by All About Symbian, the world’s biggest community site and portal for smartphones running the Symbian OS. Read it here. This is the kind of feedback we like, with points raised about features of Rseven or new things that we can add to it.

I particularly like the idea on transcribing the call recording, one way to go about it is by working with one of these guys mentioned in this Techcrunch post. Another way maybe is by sound matching, i.e. you say the word, then Rseven will try & find call recording with those words, like what FindSounds does. Anyway that’s another item added to our very long to do lists.

Rseven Newsletter #2

Rseven Newsletter #2 – January 2010

Happy New Year Rseven User!

As we roll on to the second decade of the new millennium, we are adding new features to Rseven, the most complete online mobile lifecache service.

1. Rseven Pro
As mentioned in the Rseven FAQ page, we are introducing the paid version of Rseven, known as Rseven Pro. The table below shows the difference between the free version of Rseven and Rseven Pro.


Rseven Rseven Pro
Monthly upload limit 50MB 500MB
Timeline window Past 3 months Unlimited

The monthly upload limit of files (images, video, audio & call recording) will be reset on the 1st of every calendar month at 0000hrs Central Time (US & Canada) (GMT -6). The timeline window limit of 3 months means that free users can only browse, view, search and restore items up to 3 months ago. Your data are NOT deleted from our servers, but to access the data older than 3 months ago, you have to upgrade to the Rseven Pro account. The timeline window limitation for free users will only be enforced at the end of January 2010.


The Rseven Pro fee is USD2.00 per month (cheaper than a cup of coffee!), payable in an annual subscription of USD24.00 per year. At the moment, we only accept payment via Paypal. To upgrade, just click on the Upgrade to Rseven Pro button after you login to the Rseven website. Continue reading →

Certificate Issue

Yes, we are trying to resolve the certificate renewal problem, it’s taking longer than expected. If you’re not comfortable using the non-encrypted HTTP to access rseven.com, please wait until we fix this.

I’m sorry about this, it’s our bad.
[Updated] It’s fixed, the certificate is ok now, Rseven is back on secure HTTP.

Rseven Newsletter #1

Hi Rseven User,

Firstly, we at Rseven would like to thank you for using our service, the most complete online mobile backup & sync service that caches your life. In this inaugural newsletter, we’d like to share with you what we’ve been busy with in the past few months. We hope that these new features will be useful tools in your daily tasks.

1. Call and Location Recording
Rseven can record all your incoming and outgoing calls, and have it played back on our website
rseven.com. To activate this feature, open the Rseven application in your phone, go to Options > Settings > Record calls, and set your preference. You have the choice to record all calls, prompt to record, or turn it off. Rseven automatically records the location where you made and received calls and SMS. The location info can be seen in the details of those calls and SMS (in Timeline view at rseven.com).

2. Match your phone contacts with your Facebook friends
Do you know that you can match your phonebook contacts with your Facebook friends? You can do this by selecting a contact from your contact list at
rseven.com, and clicking Match to select which of your Facebook friends this contact is. This will automatically set their Facebook profile photo as the contact photo in your phone.

3. Share contacts and items using Groups
Using Group features, you can create, manage and invite other people to join a Group. You can share contacts, images, calendar events and other items with Group members. A shared contact and calendar will appear in the group member’s phone when they next sync to Rseven.

As we value your feedback on Rseven, we’d appreciate it if you’d take the time to email your suggestions (or complaints) to support@rseven.com. Once again, thanks for lifecaching with us.
