Tockall

Nobody picks up unknown numbers anymore. Between robocalls, spam labels, and call screening, a phone ringing from a number nobody recognizes simply rings out.

Tockall changes the order of operations. Send a short heads-up text first — "Hi Sarah, I'll be calling from this number in about ten minutes" — then place the call. Your name arrives before your number does, and the call gets answered.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Pick one person, or a whole list.
2. Choose a saved message. The recipient's name fills in automatically.
3. Review, send, and dial. One continuous flow, no copying and pasting between apps.

MADE FOR PEOPLE WHO CALL FOR A LIVING • Contractors, technicians, and drivers confirming an arrival window • Real estate and insurance agents reaching new leads • Front desks at clinics, salons, studios, and tutoring centers • Anyone whose first call to a stranger is the hardest one to land

SAVED MESSAGES Write it once, use it for years. Keep as many message templates as you like — on my way, running late, confirming tomorrow, returning your inquiry. Each one fills in the recipient's name and your own, so nothing reads like a blast.

BRING YOUR LIST IN • Spreadsheet and CSV files • Paste a list straight from the clipboard • Photograph a business card or a sign-in sheet • Pull from the contacts already on your iPhone Match the columns, check the preview, and fix anything before it saves.

WORK THROUGH A LIST Line up several people and move through them back to back — send, call, next. Useful for a morning of appointment confirmations or a round of callbacks.

YOUR LIST STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE No account. No sign-up. No server. Names, numbers, and templates live on the device and are never uploaded anywhere. We cannot look at your list, because we never receive it.

NO ADS None today, none later.

WHAT IT COSTS Tockall is free. Saved messages, contact importing, and reaching one person at a time are unlimited and always will be. Sending to more than five people in a single run is a one-time $4.99 purchase — pay once, keep it. No subscription, no monthly fee, no credits to top up.

Messages are written in the standard iOS message sheet and calls go through the iPhone dialer, so you always see and approve what goes out. Standard carrier messaging rates apply.
