Adding and editing contacts
A contact can have several phone numbers, each with its own type: Mobile, Home, Work, Other or your own label. There are also email, company, job title and birthday fields. Start with the Add new contact button on the Contacts tab. A number you type on the Keypad tab can be saved to a new or an existing contact with the Add to contacts button.
Contact actions: transfer, groups and SIM phonebook
The Contact actions menu at the top of the Contacts tab has four options. Import contacts and Export contacts work with VCF files; before an import the file is checked and contacts you already have are set apart. Contact groups lets you create groups and add members. SIM phonebook shows the entries on your SIM card and copies them to your contacts.
Contact details
Contact details now open full screen. From there you can call, send a message, edit the contact, add it to favorites, choose the default number, set a custom ringtone and block the number. Tapping a contact in the Contacts list (double-tapping with a screen reader) calls it; the details and other actions are in your screen reader’s actions menu. If you turn off Tap to Call in the Accessibility section of Settings, tapping a contact opens its details.
During a call
The Add call button on the call screen opens a searchable contact list with letter headings; you can join two calls with Merge. If a Bluetooth headset or watch is connected, the Bluetooth button sends the sound to it; with several devices a list opens to choose from. For this, grant the Bluetooth call devices permission once in the Permissions and Privacy section of Settings. With Automatic Speaker on, the sound stays in the earpiece while the phone is at your ear and moves to the speaker when you take it away.
Incoming calls: turn over, raise and auto answer
Three optional settings sit at the end of the Accessibility section of Settings. Turn Over to Silence: turning a ringing phone face down silences the ringer and the caller announcement. Raise to Answer: raising the phone to your ear silences the ringer, and the call is answered when the sensor detects your ear. Auto Answer: the call is answered by itself after the wait you choose, if you like only with a headset connected or only for your saved contacts. A call whose ringer you silenced is never answered by itself.
Recent Calls and statistics
Opening a call entry shows its details full screen, with your whole call history with that number and actions such as Call Back, Send message and Add to Contacts. From the Options menu at the top of Recent Calls you can open Call statistics: total calls, talk time and the people you talk to most, per week, month and year; you can copy or share the report.
Speed dial and voicemail
Open Speed dial in Settings and assign a contact to a key from 2 to 9. On the Keypad tab, with the number field empty, long-press that key to call the contact; with a screen reader, find the key, double-tap and keep your finger down on the second tap. Long-pressing 1 calls voicemail; you can enter the voicemail number for each SIM on the same screen, under key 1.
Ringtones
The Ringtone section of Settings has eight Güven Phone ringtones; listen to each with Preview and make one your phone’s ringtone. On the first choice Android asks for permission to modify system settings; the Open permission screen button takes you there. To give one contact its own ringtone, use Custom ringtone in the contact’s details.
Caller announcement and number reading
In the Accessibility section of Settings, with Announce Caller on, you choose how many times the caller is announced, the speed, the volume and which sound it uses: Accessibility volume, Media volume or Ringtone volume. Phone number reading style sets how numbers are read: Accessible format (recommended), Digit by digit or Two-digit groups.
Reporting a problem
If something goes wrong, open Report a problem at the top of Settings. Describe the problem briefly if you like, then tap Send (with a screen reader, double-tap). The report contains no names, phone numbers or messages.
