You may find yourself in some awkward situations in life, and GottaGo by Windy Studios ($1.99,
App Store) has set out to help you escape by making it seem as if your iPhone has an incoming call. It's quite self explanatory.
Upon launch, GottaGo displays options to set how long before you're "called". A list of settings can alter who the incoming call is coming from (the default rather amusingly set as "Mother"), and from which one of their phones. It also asks whether you'd like the phone to vibrate and offers a sizeable list of fake ringtones to choose from.
The deception goes into alarming detail, with the fake phone call screen serving as a facsimile of an incoming iPhone call, and all the familiar phone controls appearing when the call is answered (though in this version you're unable to decline a fake call -- a dark reminder that there is no turning back now). After that, you're left to your own devices and to carry out an imaginary conversation.
Windy Studios says there's an upgrade is in the pipeline to provide even more realistic details, such as a custom home screen, a selection of carrier names, and the option to hide the countdown from view (to name but a few.)
And if creating imaginary phonecalls wasn't enough, GottaGo is also available for the iPod Touch, allowing non-iPhone owners to deceive themselves. More screenshots after the jump.
