Free calls that
take their own notes.

The gap this fills

Orgmee's main way of capturing a call is to use the recorder built into your phone's dialer. That covers most Android phones — but not all of them. Some models have never shipped one, and in some countries manufacturers disable it.

If you're on one of those phones, the honest answer for a normal cellular call is that Orgmee can't record it, and it won't pretend otherwise or ask you for the Accessibility permission that Play Store policy no longer allows for this purpose.

Internet calling is the way around that. When both people have Orgmee, the call runs through the app instead of through the cellular network — and a call the app is carrying is a call the app can record, cleanly and with permission you've explicitly given.

How it works

• You dial normally. Open Orgmee's dialer, or pick a contact. If that number belongs to someone with Orgmee, the app offers to place the call over the internet instead.
• They get a proper incoming call. A full-screen ringing call, not a chat notification you might miss.
• Recording is a toggle you control. Turn it on and the call is recorded, then transcribed and summarized on your phone like any other call.
• Notes land in the same place. Internet calls appear in the same list as cellular ones, with the same searchable transcripts and summaries.

Only your contacts can ring you — no spam.

Opening up a new way to be reached is normally how you acquire a new way to be spammed. Orgmee closes that off before it starts: "Only contacts" is the default, set under Settings → Who can call you via Orgmee. If a caller's number isn't saved in your phone, your phone never rings.

Three details make this stronger than a typical block list:

• It's checked before the phone rings, not after. The filter runs the moment the call notification arrives on your device — an unknown caller produces no ring, no vibration, no missed-call entry. Nothing to dismiss, because nothing ever started.
• The caller just gets "busy". They see exactly what they'd see calling someone already on another call. It deliberately doesn't say "you're not in their contacts" — otherwise a nuisance caller could use your app to work out whether you've saved their number.
• Your contact list never leaves your phone. The check runs entirely on your device against your own address book. That's a deliberate trade: Orgmee could enforce this on a server, but only by uploading everyone's contacts first, and that's a worse deal than the problem it solves.

One practical note, since it affects whether this works for you: the filter needs contacts permission to compare against. If that permission isn't granted, Orgmee lets calls ring through rather than silently blocking everyone — a missing permission is a technical gap, not a decision you made, and failing the other way would be a far worse mistake than the nuisance calls it's there to stop.

If you'd rather be reachable by anyone with your number, "Anyone" is the other option. It's just not the default.

What it is not

Worth being clear, because "internet calling" means different things in different apps:

• It is not a calling-credit service. Orgmee can't dial landlines, toll-free numbers or people who don't have the app. There's nothing to top up.
• It requires both sides to have Orgmee, with a verified phone number — that verification is what lets your contacts find you and what stops strangers spoofing a number to call you.
• It needs a connection on both ends, and quality follows the worse of the two. On patchy mobile data a normal cellular call may sound better.

The side benefit: international calls

Because the call travels over the internet rather than a carrier's voice network, distance stops mattering. A call between two Orgmee users in different countries costs the same as one across town — nothing beyond the data — and it still produces a transcript and a summary at the end.
