How do I make an outbound call?
Making An Outbound Call
The way our app works, the Burner number that you set up acts as an intermediary between your number and the number you're calling, as a way to hide your true number. So, when you make an outgoing call, it dials the Burner, then gets automatically connected to the final destination.
If you see any error messages or it doesn't connect, be sure you have a ten digit US/CA number inputted properly (we don't currently support international calls) and make sure your Burner number is not blocked on your device. You'll also want to ensure that if your account is associated with your cell number, that you are using the device that hosts your cell number only. Burner cannot make calls if associated with a Voip or Internet number - only your cell number.
