Search Faroese names, numbers and towns, and identify incoming calls from the national directory with a seven-day offline index. Developed by ktr.fo as a mobile directory for the Faroe Islands, the app requires sign-in with a Faroese number and offers profile editing, quick-access lists, and direct actions to call, message, or open a map from search results. It's aimed at residents and anyone who regularly contacts Faroese businesses or people.

What the app does for day-to-day local communication

The app serves as a mobile interface to the Faroese directory: you can search names, telephone numbers and towns, save frequent numbers to a quick list, and launch phone, messaging or map apps directly from search results. These integrated actions let a user move from lookup to contact without switching apps, and personal profile management lets people update their own contact details and visibility settings.

How the app handles caller identification and permissions

Caller identification uses the official Faroese directory to show incoming-number details for numbers listed in the directory. To enable this behavior, you must set the app as the default caller ID handler in Android settings and grant the app permission to display over other apps; the sign-in flow requires a Faroese mobile number and verification code. These steps make caller labels appear for unidentified calls on the device.

Offline access, platform reach, and account constraints

The app keeps an offline directory that remains valid for seven days after the last download, which supports lookups without an active connection for short periods. It's available only on Android devices and requires Android 10 or later, and account access is gated by a Faroese phone number. The interface is provided in Faroese, which aligns the app with local users but limits immediate use by non-Faroese speakers.

Clear fit for Faroese residents, limited by geography and platform

The app is a focused local directory tool that fits residents and people who frequently contact Faroese businesses, offering direct call and messaging actions plus a temporary offline index. Its dependence on a Faroese phone number and Android devices narrows its audience, so people outside the region or on other platforms won't gain the same value. The app suits anyone who needs fast, phone-integrated access to Faroese contact data.
