Recents

The Recents list with All, Missed and FireTone chips and several calls Every call, both lines, newest first. Each row carries the line it used — a green SIP badge or a grey CELL one — and a REC badge if it was recorded. Missed calls are in red, and repeated calls to the same party collapse into one row with a count. The chips across the top are the quick filters: All, Missed, FireTone. The funnel beside them opens the full set. The filter drawer with Direction, Line, When and Only Recorded Direction, line, a time window, and only recorded. Long-pressing the search icon opens the same drawer, which is quicker once you know it. Swipe a row left to delete it, right to play its recording. The two buttons at the right of the chip strip are voicemail and your recordings.
On the iPhone, Recents is FireTone’s own history and covers FireTone calls properly. iOS does not open the system call log to any app, so calls you make from the Phone app are not here — FireTone logs the ones it hands off itself, which is as close as the platform allows.

Contacts

The contacts list grouped A–H, I–P, Q–Z Your phone’s address book, read only — FireTone does not create or change contacts, and nothing is uploaded. Search matches names and SIP addresses. Two gestures worth knowing:
  • Swipe left for Favourites.
  • Swipe right for the filter view — by line, by letter, or by recording rule.
The Favourites drawer with four starred contacts as cards Starred contacts appear as cards with the call button on them. Star somebody from their page.

One person

A contact page with Channel and Recording choosers and recent calls Their page carries two settings that outrank the app-wide ones for this person only:
  • Channel — Auto, FireTone or Carrier. Auto follows your default line.
  • Recording — Auto, Always or Never. Always and Never both beat the app-wide policy, in either direction.
SIP info is where you give somebody a SIP address, so calling them reaches their extension rather than their mobile. Below that, every call you have had with them, and any recordings.
When a standing line override is set, this page says so rather than pretending the Channel chooser is in charge: “Overridden: every call goes over the carrier, whatever is chosen here. Hold the dial button to clear it.”
