Fake Call offers App Screen Calls and optional Real Phone Calls. Choose the experience that fits your needs. APP SCREEN CALLS Simulate incoming, voice and video call screens on your device. Choose a caller, timing, ringtone, voice and background. Add contacts, import permitted contacts, use the keypad and view simulated-call history. VIP users can start a scheduled simulation from Apple Watch. These screens do not connect to another person or establish a FaceTime call. Basic simulation does not require sign-in. REAL PHONE CALLS — US NUMBERS Sign in, verify your own US number and schedule a server-placed call from the Fake Call service number. Save the service number to recognize it. Calls support up to 60 seconds; one credit covers one call under the charging rules shown before scheduling. Available voices and scripts are shown in the app. This feature cannot call arbitrary third-party numbers or emergency services. Availability depends on supported numbers and service status. TWO SEPARATE PURCHASES VIP App Access unlocks app customization, video simulation and other listed app features. Monthly and annual plans renew automatically unless canceled; lifetime access is a one-time purchase. Eligible VIP purchases can be restored. Real-call credits are separate account-linked consumables, offered as 5-call and 20-call packs in the US App Store. VIP does not include these credits. No automatic renewal. The App Store price and charging conditions appear before purchase. The server keeps your remaining balance; restoring a VIP purchase does not re-grant used credits. When offered, the first account/number trial requires two completed, server-verified rewarded ads and is limited to one trial. PRIVACY Simulated contacts and media remain on your device. Optional real calls send your verified number, schedule and required call details to our server and telecommunications provider. Analytics, advertising, account and purchase data are handled as described in our Privacy Policy. This app does not provide emergency or safety-monitoring services.
