About World Phone

Add a second phone number to your device. Make low-cost calls to anywhere.

What World Phone Is Used For

World Phone appears to be a phone app for adding a second phone number to an Android device and placing low-cost calls. Based on the metadata, it is likely used by people who want a separate calling line without carrying another handset, or who need a number for travel, work, or personal separation. The Travel & Local category also suggests it is intended for communication needs that may come up while moving between places or networks.

The listed permissions point to calling and contact-related functions. Access to contacts, microphone, phone state, outgoing calls, and SMS may support dialing, call handling, and message features. Network and Wi‑Fi permissions suggest the app relies on internet connectivity, while billing permissions indicate there may be paid features or call credit purchases. Device-specific permissions such as boot completion and vibration imply it may also manage background behavior and call alerts on a phone device.
