About this app

Ever been stuck on a bad date, trapped in a meeting that won't end, or felt unsafe walking alone? EscapeMate gives you an instant way out. With a single tap, a triple-press of your volume button, or a pre-scheduled timer, your phone rings with a realistic-looking incoming call — giving you the perfect excuse to step away.

No more fake texting. No more pretending to look at your phone. Just answer your "call," walk away, and get on with your day.

WHY PEOPLE USE ESCAPEMATE

• Exit uncomfortable dates or awkward conversations
• Leave boring meetings or long-winded calls gracefully
• Create a safety buffer when walking alone at night
• Escape high-pressure sales pitches
• Duck out of social events politely
• Get out of situations where saying "no" feels hard

KEY FEATURES

Instant Trigger
Tap the big call button on the home screen to ring your phone immediately.

Triple-Press Volume Button
Activate a fake call hands-free by pressing volume up three times — ideal when your phone is in your pocket or purse.

Scheduled Calls
Set a specific time for your fake call to ring. Meeting starts at 1:00 PM and you want an excuse by 2:15? Schedule it in seconds.

Custom Caller Profile
Choose the name, number, and photo that appear on the incoming call screen. Make it look like a call from your boss, your babysitter, your doctor, or anyone else.

Realistic Call Experience
Full incoming call screen with ringtone, vibration, wake-the-screen behavior, and an active call timer. Looks and feels like a real call to anyone looking over your shoulder. Voice Ads will play through your earpiece to simulate someone talking to you.

Power Through the Lock Screen
Fake calls wake your phone from sleep and appear over the lock screen, just like real incoming calls.

Privacy-First Design
Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no sign-ups, no cloud sync. Your fake caller details, scheduled calls, and settings never leave your phone.

WHY WE BUILT IT

EscapeMate is designed for real-life moments where a polite exit matters — whether that's personal safety, professional tact, or just needing a break. It's a quick, simple tool that puts an escape plan in your pocket, always ready when you need it.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS

EscapeMate generates simulated, on-device incoming call screens for entertainment and personal safety purposes. The app does NOT:

• Place real phone calls
• Spoof or modify your caller ID
• Impersonate real phone numbers or services
• Interact with your actual call history or phone network

All "calls" are mock events generated entirely within the app. This tool is intended for lawful, responsible personal use only.

PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED

• Phone State — used ONLY to avoid triggering fake calls during real calls
• Accessibility Service — enables the triple-volume-button shortcut so you can trigger a call hands-free
• Notifications & Full-Screen Intent — to display the incoming call screen over the lock screen
• Camera & Photos — optional, for custom caller profile pictures

We never read your contacts, your real call logs, your messages, or your location.
