Call profile

So-called call profiles allow previously defined actions to be assigned to a particular participant’s call. Call profiles can be installed in end devices as well as in telephone systems, and can be used for many different applications. In modern smartphones, call profiles form the basic function of a mobile operating system. Usually, the telephone number of a caller is used to assign a call profile to the caller. If the caller suppresses his/her call number, then the previously defined call profile may not function under certain circumstances. However, general call profiles can also be set up for all calls with suppressed telephone number.
