- We have seen the Crees that show that Google is working on the “calling card” feature for Android.
- The feature can allow full screen images and custom fonts for incoming calls.
- As speculation, it can be like iOS contact posters, which help users give their call display personalities.
Google and Apple often see each other’s operating system to see what they have to bring after. We have seen more from iOS copy features such as widgets, free app icon plasment, and Android on the home screen. On the other hand, we have seen Google working on a hand -off features, which is a page outside Apple’s book. We have now found indicators for the developed “calling card” feature, which can potentially respond to the Android of iOS contact posters.

An AP tear down helps predict the features that can reach a service -based code on the future. However, it is possible that such predators do not make it public release.
We know about “Calling Cards”
The Google Contacts app has gradually developed the code for the “calling card” feature during the past few releases. For example, the app’s V4.55 adds the following strings:
Code
Copy Texture and Calling Card Set this photo as both contact photo and calling card
Lonely does not give many indicators about what this wire is happening, besides telling us that users will be configured as a contact picture and calling card. The name of the wire states that the icon itself comes from the calling card, so you will configure the calling card as a contact picture.
Real ‘Ah!’ The moment came from a new calling card activity, where we saw “calling cardfont data” and “calling card philosophical mejita”. This is the place where things are interesting: customs fonts and full screen photos. Familiar sound?

We have to dig into Google Play Services for the next set of crushes. We have seen the Calling Cards in the cloud and they have seen the code related to the device compatible in the device:

These strings do not even tell us what the calling card is, but they tell us that the calling card can be made, deleted, updated, synchronized and much more. Unfortunately, we do not have a definite answer to the feature of the calling cards coming into Google Connections, and what it can do.
So, then what are these “calling cards”? Although Google’s apps live strictly about their precise functionality, the clue indicates that IOS 17’s delightful contact posters respond to Android.
Posters of iOS 17
With iOS 17, Apple introduces a new feature called contact posters, which are full -screen images that appear whenever you call known contact.
Customers can set their own image, make it personalized by the filters, and set the font and font color for their name.
The next time the user calls a well -known contact, the recipient will see the user’s set contact poster.

The contact poster also works with the feature of the namedroop, which allows users to share their contact information quickly through the air drop by bringing their devices closer.
Overall, the contact poster feature has changed the dynamic to configure contact images, this work is never bothered by most of us. Instead of setting up contact photos with you for all the contacts on your phone, everyone can set it for themselves as they fit with you and share it with you. That way, you have updated photos for contacts using your iPhone, and if you want you to set customs profile photos for them.
Can “calling cards” be the answer to Google’s iOS contact poster?
Contact poster beating with boring and empty incoming call screens, add to the iPhone owner and use experience. As speculation, indicators such as font information and full screen images for Google’s calling cards increase the weight of the possibility that this is the experience that Google can also build for Android users. Most of us have already compiled a picture for our Google account, and to harmonize this information with our contacts would be an easy way to bring in the contact poster in Android.
It is worth noting that we do not yet know what Google Contact Calling Cards are. It is a suitable possibility that they are completely something else. Google has not yet announced anything about them. We will see more about the feature for more and update you when we learn more.
