App Contacts
The Contacts section in the FlyNumber phone system app allows you to manage both external contacts and team members. You can easily search, organize, and initiate calls directly from your contacts list.
Contact Types​
External Contacts​
External contacts are individuals or businesses outside your organization that you add through the app. These can be clients, vendors, partners, or any other external contacts you communicate with.
Team Contacts​
Team contacts are internal users that have been added through the phone system panel. These are your colleagues and team members who also have access to the phone system.
Team contacts can only be created and managed through the phone system panel. You cannot add or modify team contacts directly through the app.
