Field notes
foen assigns each user twelve recovery words that function as a phone number across devices. The interface supports shared call links, an editable personal foenbook, device selection, and an optional public directory that is currently empty. Its text says the device can serve the call directly, with nothing buffered in between, but the supplied extract does not verify a completed call.
