Call modes

PrivateGSM lets you to:

1. make secure calls to phone numbers and contacts using the PrivateGSM +801 prefix (not available on iOS). In this case, you do not need to manually open the main menu of PrivateGSM if the application is in background.
2. make secure calls to phone numbers and contacts without entering the PrivateGSM prefix directly from menu of the application.

Secure prefix number (Android and BlackBerry)

Calls with PrivateGSM are simply identified by the "+801" prefix in front of the number to be dialed including the international prefix without zeros. For example:
"+801 44 333 1234567"

...

Secure calling by the +801 prefix (not available on iOS)

Making secure calls with PrivateGSM is very easy. Dialing is as simple as prefixing your phone numbers with +801 as with international calls. With secure prefix you can make calls as you do with normal calls on your phone: insert phone number, select a contact from your address book or even from recent calls logs. Phone numbers prefixed with secure prefix +801 are detected by PrivateGSM which automatically starts a secure call.

Dialing a secure call

You can dial a secure call by entering the "+801" prefix before the number to be dialed, including the international country code without zeros, and press the Dial button.

Excerpt

Presence The Presence avoid users to call contacts who are not reachable, eg: because they do not have PrivateGSM activated and/or connected. The main value of this feature is to improve user experience suggesting the possible outcome of a call. Contacts lists Starting with the present version, there are three lists: BASE: it lists all the contacts which are in the mobile address book, ordering them in the very same way. KNOWN: it shows only known contacts (registered or not) according to PrivateServer's knowledge. This means it is a list of the contacts that are recognised by the server and thus can have a status. FAVOURITES: it reads the contacts marked by you as "PrivateGSM favorites". It's a selection of contacts you choose to have apart, in order to make speed calls. Each list may show a Contact status beside each contact. The contact status legenda is shown below: Contact status Image Modified Online The contact is reachable. You can make a secure call to the user.   Offline The contact is not reachable, because is not under network coverage or is offline. You can try to make a secure call but the call will likely fail   Warning The contact is not reachable using a full secure call, but you can call him using the unsecure Sip Trunk configured on your server.  Warning title Enterprise version only!   Error There is a comunication error between your phone and the server. The contact status is unknown, anyway you can try to make a secure call

...

The other lists (KNOWN and FAVOURITES) can show only one number per entry.
