Full description
Need a believable fake call to exit an awkward situation, protect your privacy, or just stay in control of your time? Shadow Call makes it happen — with real telecom-style incoming call behavior, custom caller identities, and realistic audio playback. 📞 REALISTIC FAKE INCOMING CALLS Shadow Call uses Android Telecom integration to trigger call screens that look and feel like real incoming calls — not a simple popup. Whether you need to slip out of a meeting, avoid an unwanted conversation, or create a convincing interruption, Shadow Call delivers. 🔊 FAKE CALL AUDIO & SOUND SIMULATION Record your own audio clips or use text-to-speech to create sounds that play during your fake call — making the "other person" feel real. Customize what the caller sounds like and make every call scenario believable. ⏱️ ONE-TAP SCHEDULING Trigger a fake call instantly or schedule one in advance: • Now • 10 seconds • 30 seconds • 1 minute • 5 minutes • Custom delay 👤 CUSTOM CALLER PROFILES Set up a fake caller with a name, phone number, and optional photo. Save multiple profiles as presets and switch between them in seconds — perfect for repeated use without re-entering details. 📋 SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT View all your pending and past calls in one place. Cancel scheduled calls anytime. Full call history so you always know what ran. ⚙️ CALL BEHAVIOR CONTROLS Fine-tune how each call behaves: • Vibration on ring • Auto-answer timer • Auto-hangup timer 📱 DIALER & OUTGOING CALL SIMULATION Includes a realistic dialpad and outgoing call UI — ideal for situations where you need to appear to be making a call, not just receiving one. 👥 CONTACT SUGGESTIONS Pull from your contacts (with permission) for quick caller setup — no manual typing needed. 🔋 WORKS AFTER REBOOT Scheduled alarms are restored after device restart, so your planned fake calls stay on track even if your phone restarts. 🏷️ CUSTOM APP LABEL Rename the calling account label to keep things discreet and match your personal branding preferences. — — — WHO IS SHADOW CALL FOR? • People who need a polite escape from awkward social situations • Anyone who values personal privacy on the go • Professionals managing back-to-back meetings and calls • Users who want scheduled interruptions for focus or safety Shadow Call is a privacy tool for personal use. It does not connect to real phone networks, VoIP services, or cloud systems. — — — PERMISSIONS USED Shadow Call requests permissions needed to deliver a realistic experience: phone, contacts, exact alarm scheduling, notifications, foreground service, and call log. Denying some permissions may limit features but the app will still function. Download Shadow Call and take control of when — and with whom — you appear to be on the phone.

What's new

• Fixed scheduled calls failing to start on Android 13 and newer • Fixed the app closing unexpectedly when a call was triggered • Fixed a crash when picking a contact on some devices • Clearer setup help if your calling account isn't switched on yet • Fewer and less intrusive ads • Updated for Android 16
