Read full description

Dialdex is an offline directory of international dial codes for 250 countries and territories. Search by country name or by dial code, tap an entry to copy its code to the clipboard, and get capital, currency, region, subregion and ISO details with a long press, all without an internet connection. Whether you need the dial code for a neighboring country or somewhere on the other side of the world, Dialdex finds it in seconds and puts it on your clipboard, ready to paste. What Dialdex does: - Browse 250 countries and territories, each shown with its flag, name and dial code, grouped alphabetically. - Search by name, in your device language or in English, with partial matches anywhere in the name. - Search by dial code: typing 37 shows every code from +370 to +379 plus +237, with exact matches ranked first. - Tap an entry to copy its dial code to the clipboard, with an on-screen confirmation and haptic feedback. - Long-press an entry to see its capital, currency (code, name and symbol), region, subregion and ISO code, with a dedicated copy button. - Light and dark appearance, VoiceOver and Dynamic Type support, and an interface available in English and Russian. Dialdex works completely offline. Its data for dial codes, capitals, currencies and regions is built into the app, so no internet connection is needed and none is used. No accounts, no sign-up, and no data collection: Dialdex does not use analytics, tracking or advertising SDKs, and it does not send any information over the network.
