Contacts App
The Contacts app serves as your address book within the game world, allowing you to save, manage, and interact with the phone numbers of other characters.
Accessing the App:
Tap the Contacts icon (typically an address book 📖) on the Home Screen.
Main Screen (Contact List):
- Displays all your saved contacts, sorted alphabetically by name. Contacts are grouped under alphabetical headers (e.g., A, B, C).
- Each contact entry shows their profile picture, saved name, and phone number. If the contact's original actor name is different from the saved name, the original name might be shown in parentheses.
- Search Bar: Located at the top (🔍), allowing you to quickly find contacts by typing their name or phone number.
Action Bar Buttons:
- Scan Nearby (Bluetooth icon )<0xF0><0x9F><0xA7><0xAE>: Initiates a scan for nearby characters (on the map) who are currently sharing their contact information. Found contacts can be added directly.
- My Number (ID card icon 💳): Opens a screen showing your own phone number, profile picture, and name. You can copy your number or share it via the Bluetooth function from here. Depending on GM settings, you might also be able to change your phone number or profile picture.
- Add Contact (Plus icon +): Opens a screen to manually add a new contact by entering their phone number and an optional name.
Contact Actions:
Each contact entry has quick action buttons:
- Call (Phone icon 📞): Immediately initiates a voice call to the contact using the Phone App. Opens an action sheet asking you to choose between a regular call or an Anonymous Call. This allows you to call the contact while hiding your number.
- Message (Comment icon 💬): Opens the Messages App directly to a conversation with this contact.
- More Options (Ellipsis icon ⋮): Opens a small menu with options to Edit Name, Share Contact, or Delete Contact.
Adding a New Contact:
- Adding a Contact Manually:
- Tap the Add Contact (+) button.
- Enter the Phone Number in the correct format (e.g.,
STD-1234-5678). The Save button will only become active if the number format is valid according to the GM's settings.
- Optionally, enter a Name you want to display for this contact. If left blank, the phone number might be used as the display name.
- Tap Save. The system will attempt to find the character associated with the phone number to store their basic info (like original name and avatar) alongside your custom name. You'll receive an error if the number doesn't exist in the game world.
