The best dialers for Android phones. Why is it worth changing the standard one? Selecting a phone application for Android devices: Dialer One, Full Screen Caller ID, exDialer & Contacts, PixelPhone and Contacts Dialer

For each smartphone operating under Android control, a so-called “dialer” has been installed. This is an application that combines dialing, call log and contact book. But not everyone likes the option created by the smartphone manufacturer. In this case, we consider installing a “dialer” from third party developers. It is these types of applications that we will talk about in this article.

There are a variety of “dialers” for Android. They can have both very wide and standard functionality. They can also be paid or free. In the first case, you will most likely see advertisements regularly. In the second, there will be no advertising, but you will have to spend some money. Finally, can be equipped with the function Reserve copy to your chosen cloud service. This will allow you to not rely strictly on servers Google. However, enough of the lyrics. Let's get acquainted with what the best “dialers” are.

True Phone

Simple enough, but functional program. Primarily intended for those people who have pre-installed application For some reason it refuses to work stably. Here, each contact is equipped with a round miniature. If the contact does not have a photo, then the first letter of the name is displayed in this thumbnail. If necessary, you can quickly move to the desired part of the list - for this, the alphabet on the right edge is used. All information in this and some other sections is on a black background. However, this is only the default - the color can be changed.

In total, True Phone consists of four tabs. In addition to “Contacts”, these are “Phone”, “Favorites” and “Groups”. The last section is very convenient. With its help, you can unite your entire family into one group, further simplifying the call of any relative.

Each contact here has its own page. The application also supports speed dial. It is also important that the program has rich settings. In particular, you can easily change the size of the lines and font, as well as the color of any element. As expected, True Phone provides the ability to manage two SIM cards. You can even create two call buttons! The application also has experimental features, which can be activated.

In short, the developers did their best. They distribute their product for free. However, advertising will be displayed in the application settings (not immediately, but 7 days after installation). If it annoys you, you can spend a couple of dollars on the Pro version.

PixelPhone

Another free “dialer” for Android. Initially, Russian developers were involved in the development of the application. But later the program was acquired by Felink Technology. Its management liked the fact that the application not only supports work with three SIM cards if the smartphone has so many slots, but is also equipped with Antispam technology. However, from now on all advanced functions are contained only in PixelPhone Pro, which is distributed on a paid basis.

The contact book in this application is made in a traditional manner. Next to each entry there is a round miniature. If there is no photograph, then the miniature contains only the silhouette of a man. All contacts are divided alphabetically. You can navigate to the desired letter using the list on the right. And you can also enter the first letters of your last name at any time, for which you use search string at the top of the interface. As with all applications of this kind, there is a “Blacklist” function. But even more, users should like the ability to change themes. By default, the Material theme is activated, which first appeared in Android 5.0.

exDialer

A very good dialer for Android with a built-in contact book. The application supports the Russian-language SmartDial, so the desired contact can be found in a couple of clicks. At the same time, the program works very quickly. Even if your contact book consists of several hundred entries, and the application is installed on an old smartphone with weak components.

Like many other Russian dialers for Android, exDialer has rich settings. At any time, the user can change the theme, as well as change the font sizes and various interface elements. Moreover, gestures are supported here, the reactions to which are also customizable. There is also support for plugins that can expand the functionality even further.

Unfortunately, the application will not suit everyone. The fact is that the free version is essentially a trial version - it only works for one week. As soon as you get used to the dialer, it refuses to start, requiring you to pay 230 rubles. However, this is not the most large sum- Smartbobr recommends forking out some cash! This is the case when the application is worth the money they ask for it.

2GIS Dialer

ASUS Dialer

At one time, this call manager was present only on ASUS smartphones. But at some point, the Taiwanese manufacturer decided to popularize his creation a little more by posting it on Google Play. The program is completely free. From the word “in general”. There is neither paid content, no advertising. But you shouldn’t expect any extraordinary functionality. In fact, this is a standard “dialer” for Android, which only has basic capabilities. For example, the number of functions includes the repeatedly mentioned SmartDial, which makes it easier to find desired contact. Any entry can be added to the “black list”. Wherein this list unwanted numbers is a separate section where there is detailed control blocked contacts.

Support for themes can be considered a nice bonus. This feature allows you to quickly change the background and text colors. The utility also offers to use the so-called “simple mode”. In fact, it activates an interface for the visually impaired - all elements become very large, and some disappear completely (in particular, in this mode you will have to forget about SmartDial).

Drupe

A very unusual “dialer” for Android. The point is that it offers unique way calling the contact book. After installing the program, you will see four dots on the left side of the screen. If you pull them, the Drupe application will open. It turns out that space on the desktop is freed up for one icon.

A special interface is also used inside the application itself. If you hold your finger on a contact, you can drag it to one of several icons. For example, drag a contact onto the messenger - a message entry window appears. Drag the contact onto the call icon and the call begins. Very comfortably! Any contact here can be created as a shortcut on the desktop. And not only on it - the shortcut can even be displayed on the lock screen! Another feature of this creation by the developers is the “Reminder”. Here you can enter an entry with a request to remind you of the need to call a subscriber.

The interface of the contact book and other sections is far from Material Design. But at least this makes the application original. Of course, all menu items are translated into Russian, otherwise the program would not have been included in our selection. Nothing bad can be said about finding the right contact - the SmartDial function manifests itself in all its glory. But the not-so-rich settings are somewhat disappointing - only a few parameters can be changed.

The application turned out to be very convenient, but it will definitely take you some time to master the controls. It is also impossible not to note the fact that the fully functional version of Drupe costs money. Free option You can use it, but it will be annoying with regular ads.

DW Contacts & Phone & Dialer

Another “dialer” that is a real combine. This application“Contacts” on Android has a colorful interface, which should appeal not so much to guys as to girls. At the same time, the search is implemented well here. If you have forgotten the name of the person you are going to call, you can search by birthday, website, e-mail and many other parameters. As long as the required contact has the appropriate fields filled in... And there is also voice search!

At incoming call the program is able to pronounce the subscriber's name. She copes with this quite well. The application has a great implementation of a call log. Convenient sorting is available in it. You can also create a note in the call log at any time. This is very useful feature, believe me!

Since this is a full-fledged combine, you can find all the information about the selected contact in one place. That is, you will see when he called you, all his SMS and various statistics. By the way, the time of all calls is constantly taken into account here. The program can notify you when your free time ends.

The application supports VoIP. This means that it can work with Skype, Viber and other Internet services of this kind. The user should also be pleased with the “Settings” section, in which almost everything is configured. You can also change the theme, which is good news. But the presence of advertising can be upsetting. The developers are literally forcing you to buy paid version their programs.

Summarizing

This is our story about best managers calls for Android are coming to an end. There are a lot of similar applications created, but we recommend paying attention only to those discussed in this article. Some of the programs will definitely suit you 100%.

Have you ever used a third-party dialer? Or do you prefer the option pre-installed by the smartphone manufacturer? We are waiting for your opinion in the comments.

Catastrophically few. And free themes more, so many users are forced to limit themselves in functions and remain on standard solutions. But everything changed with the advent of an application developed by Russian developers, which was then acquired by Felink Technology.

PixelPhone is not only a dialer, but also a full-fledged contact manager with support for many themes, three SIM cards, Anti-spam technology and many others interesting features. In gratitude to the users who purchased PixelPhone Pro (and there are about half a million of them), the developers have released a temporary free version this application. It contains almost all the features of PixelPhone Pro.

The name of the application is adapted into Russian as “PP - dialer and contacts”. First of all, it is worth noting user-friendly interface and opportunity quick search via contacts using QWERTY and T9. The appearance is tailored to each user, including font size, colors, photo size and more. In the application settings, you can select various themes, available for download completely free of charge.

As we have already said, very important function— support for as many as three SIM cards. The application automatically detects the SIM cards installed in your smartphone, and you can make calls with the one you want. And, of course, it would not have been possible without the support of blacklists.

Group contact management deserves special attention - you can, for example, send a message to several contacts in a group at once, set a ringtone, or change a photo. Custom gestures let you swipe from left to right to write a message or make a call.

Typing is not only multilingual, but also includes vibration/audio feedback, the size of the typing keyboard is adjustable, and there is a compressed numeric keypad. Of course, all calls are saved, including by date and contacts. PixelPhone automatically groups your most frequently used contacts.

By the way, PixelPhone Pro also deserves close attention - with the update that the application will receive on July 21, users will be able to record any of their calls, as well as determine the location of the interlocutor.

The standard dialing and phone book applications are simple and not overloaded with settings. One half of users are happy with this, while the other half prefers to use advanced programs with an extended set additional parameters and opportunities. If you are part of the second half of users, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with five applications that will replace the standard dialer and directory.

The application, balanced in terms of settings and graphics, will replace the directory and dialer. The design changes due to free themes from Google Play, there are light and dark tones. The customizable parameters are grouped into sections, where each item is briefly described for better orientation. Work with devices of two cellular operator cards has been implemented.

Status: Free
Root: Not needed





Greetings to all readers website. A new work week has begun. This means that it’s time for the next release of our Android application digest. Today I will talk about third-party “dialers” or dialers.

In most cases, the standard “phone” application does an excellent job with the functions assigned to it. However, some users want to be able, for example, to change themes or search for numbers in the phone book not only by first name, last name or phone number.

In this case, suitable third party applications, which have a wider range than standard option, a set of functions.

So in this episode Big overview you will find: Dialer One, GO Contacts, Rocket Dial, ExDialer, PixelPhone.

A developer named Yermek Zhumagulov presented DialerOne back in early 2010. Since then, this “dialer” has become one of the most popular alternative dialers for Android.

Many users choose DialerOne behind big set additional functions. In addition to the completely standard numeric keypad and call history, this app features easily customizable speed dialing, T9 input, and many convenient functions for working with numbers.



To access these features, users simply need to do long tap by contact. An impressive menu will open in front of them, from which they can send entries from the phone book by email or SMS, copy to the clipboard, immediately add to the speed dial menu, create events in the calendar, etc.

There is also just a huge number of settings. The developer has divided them into seven large categories, each of which should help users change one or another aspect of this application.

Over the past few years, Go Dev Team has released dozens of applications for customizing the interface, and one of them was GOContacts. As usual, all products from this developer are not only pleasant appearance, but also big amount additional functions.

In fact GOContacts is a good replacement for the standard phone book and dialer. With this application, users will be able to group contacts, both by built-in groups and by self-created ones, add phone numbers in speed dial, make a backup of the entire phone book, etc.



As for the telephone part, everything is relatively standard. The developers didn't try to be too clever. The most interesting feature of the “dialer” is that various topics, which can be downloaded and installed from the settings.

Appeared on Google Play quite a long time ago. Since then, a lot has appeared in it interesting features, which over time migrated to others similar applications. However, this does not make this program worse. GOContacts remains the same convenient, functional and free alternative dialer for Android.

Rocket Dial

It used to be part of the popular custom firmware called MIUI, but over time it eventually moved to the Google app store. And judging by the number of downloads and positive feedback, I liked this dialer/address book a huge number users.

As usual, MIUI programs not only have a nice interface, but also have many additional functions. And this was no exception. This application has smart contact filtering (you can search by word, sound, or use a hybrid filter) and call history grouping.



If desired, users can enable landscape mode or add some new features using special plugins. There aren't many extensions available on Google Play, but a few interesting tricks they can still add. For example, with ConnectVibrate, the application will notify the user when a call is connected or disconnected using a vibration signal.

The developers didn’t forget about the themes. By the way, there are not very many of them either. But in most cases they look very neat and beautiful. Before purchasing, I advise you to try the free version, which will work for 7 days.

ExDialer ExDialer PRO Key

is a functional dialer created by Russian developers. It is for this reason that all shortcomings and errors, as well as requests coming from users, are considered and resolved very quickly.

This “dialer” is simple and clear interface, making it work very smoothly and quickly. The developers also note that for each device, all interface elements are carefully drawn. However, despite the ease of use of the application, it boasts an impressive range of functions.



As with other “dialers”, the developers paid a lot of attention to the phone book. There is smart search in different fields, and this applies not only to contacts, but also to call history. Users can also easily move contacts between groups, add them to favorites, send information via email or SMS, etc.

It's nice that the developers didn't forget about gestures. Of course, there are not as many of them as, for example, in Rocket Dial, but with their help you can hide the keyboard, cancel input, or clear a filter.

If you have any questions with the developer, you can chat on the 4PDA forum in a special topic.
