Field notes

The setup asks users to add the site to a phone’s home screen, where it appears as “Memo”; the page says the interface can resemble a chat app or black screen before presenting an iPhone-style call screen. Users choose a situation, and the page says the call can use a selected caller and photo with ring, buzz, or silent mode. It also claims offline operation and on-device settings; those behaviors are described, not independently verified here.
