Calls and video calls
You start calls and video calls at the top of a one-to-one chat. They’re end-to-end encrypted, and nothing is recorded.
Make a call
- Open the chat with a connection.
- Tap the phone at the top right for a call, or the camera for a video call.
If you touch and hold the button, you can also call via the Phone app or FaceTime, if the person has shared their number.
During a call
- Mute, Speaker, Camera and End.
- In a video call, Flip Camera.
- Under ••• you’ll find Share Screen, Compare Security Code, Report and Block.
Every call goes through our call server, even one-to-one. That’s why the other person never sees your IP address.
Protection from unwanted images
If the sensitive content warning is on in iOS Settings, Nodbase blurs nudity in the other person’s video and shows May show sensitive content. You can then view it, end the call, or block and report. Only your iPhone checks this.
Call history
In Chats, tap the phone icon at the top right next to the pencil. There you see All calls or only Missed ones. The list is stored only on your iPhone.
Who can call you
Under You › gear › Calls you set:
- Calls From: All Connections or No One.
- Show in Phone App: off by default. If you turn it on, iOS can sync the call history via iCloud.
- Ringtone.
