Calls

Clear enough to hear the kettle.

Voice or video in one tap, encrypted end-to-end, and tuned for the networks people actually have. Ashlonk adapts the call to the connection instead of dropping it — and when the network really is gone, it hands you a voice note.

Tuned for Iraqi networks

01

Voice and video, one tap

Start with voice, switch to video mid-call, or the other way round. Group voice calls for up to eight people.

02

Adapts instead of dropping

Codec bitrate follows the connection second by second. On a bad 3G day you get a slightly thinner voice, not a dead line.

03

Low-data mode

Caps voice at about 0.5 MB per minute and video at 3 MB per minute. Turn it on once and forget about it.

04

Encrypted end-to-end

Audio and video are encrypted between the two phones. Relay servers, when needed, forward packets they cannot decode.

05

Falls back to voice notes

If the call cannot connect, Ashlonk offers to record a voice note instead — so the message still gets through.

06

Call from the group

Start a call from any group chat; members join as they see it, and latecomers see who is already on.

Questions people ask

Why does the other person sound robotic sometimes?

That is the codec working hard on a weak connection. It is choosing a thinner voice over a dropped call. Move toward a window or Wi-Fi and it recovers within seconds.

Do calls work over Wi-Fi only?

They work over anything — Wi-Fi, 4G, 3G and, for voice, even a stable 2G connection.

Are calls recorded?

Never by us — we cannot. Whether the other person records on their device is up to them; choose whom you trust.

Can I call someone who does not have Ashlonk?

Not yet. Ashlonk calls go over the internet between two Ashlonk apps. Invite them — it is free.

Call home.

Get Ashlonk and ask how everyone is — properly.
