Dial is the voice companion that always picks up. Call Dial like you'd call a friend — talk out loud, naturally, and it talks right back. No typing, no menus. Just a conversation. REMEMBERS YOU Dial remembers your conversations across calls — what you're working on, how you like things, the people in your life. Pick up right where you left off. No re-explaining. GETS THINGS DONE Ask Dial to handle your email, check your calendar, search the web, or take action on the tools you connect — Gmail, Slack, Linear and more. It doesn't just chat; it does. CALLS YOU BACK Lock your phone and go. When something's done or Dial needs you, it rings you — a real call, right on your lock screen. The assistant that reaches out instead of waiting to be opened. HANDS-FREE WITH SIRI Just say "Hey Siri, talk to Dial" and it picks up. No tapping required. WARM, FAST, NATURAL Real back-and-forth voice — interrupt it, change your mind, think out loud. It feels like talking to someone who's actually listening. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your memory is yours. Review or delete any memory, disconnect any account, or delete everything anytime in Settings. Dial doesn't sell your data or use it for ads. Start free with minutes every day. Dial is the friend who always picks up — call it anytime.
