Use Elder Dialler when it is not pinned

Normal Mode keeps the everyday calling tools available while still allowing contacts, call history, blocking and settings changes.

Available actions

Contacts, calls and changes

Normal Mode is the better place for setup-style actions such as adding contacts, assigning speed dials and blocking callers.

Use contacts

Browse, search, call, view, edit or add contacts through the Android Contacts flow.

Contacts

Use the Dial Pad

Enter a number manually when Dial Pad is enabled in Preferences.

Dial Pad setting

Review call history

Check incoming, outgoing, missed and blocked/rejected calls stored locally by Elder Dialler.

Call history

Block callers

Use contact or history actions to block or unblock specific numbers.

Configure Blocking

Elder Dialler Normal Mode main screen showing CONTACTS navigation. — Normal Mode uses CONTACTS navigation instead of the pinned CALLS button.

Elder Dialler Normal Mode call history screen with CONTACTS navigation visible. — Use the Normal Mode call history for contact and blocking actions.

Emergency contact markers

Contact names may include an exclamation mark, such as ! or ！, as an internal emergency or special-contact marker. Elder Dialler strips the marker from the displayed name.

The current app no longer shows a visible exclamation badge over contact images. Do not rely on seeing a badge when checking the configured phone.
