Adding Contacts to Cloaked

Once you've enabled Called ID within iOS and Cloaked you will need to add (or save) contact information for any callers that you are expecting. You can either add someone as a contact when you dial their number or once they've called you you can save their contact information.

Adding a new Contact

Once contacts are added in Cloaked within an identity, it will be automatically synced into your phones contacts!

Why does this matter?

If you answer unknown calls you could expose yourself to all manner of malicious parties or individuals:

• Fake Insurance or Bank Calls aiming to steal money from you or your business.
• Phishing and Whaling Attempts to get sensitive or private information from you. 
• Confirms to the malicious party that the number is indeed valid and there is a user at the other end leading to more malicious or unwanted calls.
