Moony

Moony, developed by EmTec Innovative Software, has recently updated to its latest version 3.99, continuing its utility in the System Utilities category under Device Assistants. This ISDN call monitor program is designed to give users comprehensive information about incoming calls, displaying the phone number and name of the caller.

The program, which can be easily downloaded for free, offers significant features such as a telephone answering machine, fax capabilities for both sending and receiving, SMS notifications, speech output, and network support. Display of call information is facilitated through a call history window and a non-intrusive popup window, ensuring that users are not disrupted while working.

Moony 3.99, with a file size of just 3.3 MB and an executable file named moony.exe, is compatible with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and 11. This makes it highly accessible for users with various hardware configurations. The program also recognizes multiple phone numbers (MSNs), supports multiple answering machines, and provides SMS notifications for missed calls. Notably, it lists known callers to show names instead of phone numbers and has area code recognition, showing the caller's city or country.

Users searching for earlier versions can find Moony 3.9, and 3.2. These previous iterations also provide the essential features but might lack some of the optimizations present in the latest release.

• Lightweight and minimalistic with a small file size.
• Feature-rich for ISDN call monitoring.
• Compatible with multiple Windows operating systems.
• Offers various communication functionalities (fax, SMS, answering machine).
