About

Callnor

Read full description

Callnor is Linknor’s calling feature—now available as a standalone app. Previously, calling was built directly into Linknor. Callnor replaces this functionality with a dedicated app designed specifically for fast, seamless phone calls. The result: faster launch times, more direct operation, and an interface focused entirely on calling—without having to navigate through Linknor. DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO LINKNOR Callnor uses your contacts live from Linknor. Changes to names or favorites are available immediately, with no manual synchronization required. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Callnor intentionally stores only the minimum amount of data. Phone numbers remain exclusively in your iPhone’s Contacts app. Names and favorites are retrieved directly from Linknor. A Linknor contact in Callnor is simply a reference to the corresponding entry in your address book. Contact information is neither duplicated nor permanently stored in Callnor. This keeps the app lightweight while ensuring your contact data stays exactly where you expect it. WHAT IS SENT TO LINKNOR After every call, Callnor sends the following information to Linknor: • Which contact was called • When the call started and ended • How long the call lasted • Whether the call was successfully connected Opening a contact is also recorded as a separate event. Phone numbers are used only briefly to match the call to a contact and are not permanently stored by Linknor. WHAT LINKNOR DOES WITH THIS INFORMATION Linknor automatically adds every event to the contact history of the corresponding profile. Calls appear in the communication history with their status and duration—just like calls logged directly in Linknor. The “Last Contacted” date is also updated automatically. This keeps your complete communication history in one place, even when calls are made through Callnor. FEATURES • Clear dashboard showing today’s calls, connection rate, and weekly activity • Alphabetically sorted and searchable contact list with quick navigation and favorites • Classic dial pad for numbers not stored in your contacts • Call history showing the status and duration of every call WHY A SEPARATE APP? A calling app needs to respond instantly when a call starts or ends. As a standalone app, Callnor is optimized specifically for this purpose—without having to load the rest of Linknor’s functionality at the same time.
