Call Limiter is a simple, open-source Android app that helps you take control of your phone calls. Set time limits for specific contacts and let the app automatically hang up when the limit is reached — making it easy to save time, avoid distractions, and manage conversations better.Features:
- Per-Contact Call Limits: Define custom call durations for individual numbers.
- Automatic Hang-Up: Calls are disconnected when the chosen time is reached.
- Easy Time Selection: Choose limits using a bottom sheet scroll wheel for a smooth experience.
- Global Call Limit: Set default time limit for all contacts.
- Persistent Storage: Your limits remain saved until you decide to change or delete them.
- Flexible Editing: Update or remove call limits anytime with ease.
- Emergency Buffer: Add a few extra seconds for urgent or unexpected needs.
- Modern Theming: Supports both light and dark modes, adapting to your system theme.
- Privacy-Focused: Works entirely offline — no internet, no tracking, no data sharing.
Stay in control of your conversations with Call Limiter — lightweight, private, and designed to fit seamlessly into your daily calling habits.
WhatsNew:
## New Features
- Added support to save call limits with contact names
- Existing limited numbers can be renamed
- Contact names will be auto-populated when selecting from contacts and can be renamed before setting the limit
## Improvements
- Improved text field behavior to automatically lose focus after saving a limit or tapping elsewhere
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
