each contact can show a coloured ball at its left, or nothing at all. These are status marker and they represent the
Presence Status for each contact.
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.
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:
Calling by keyboard
You can make a secure call to any arbitrary number (presuming that the call peer has PrivateGSM connected) by simply entering the number on PrivateGSM main menu and pressing the dial button (the one shown in

You can communicate with your peers by text messages using the Secure Messages System which provides Secure Messages. A Secure Message is a text message that travels into the same encrypted architecture of the Secure Call.
