One scan away from family.
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Place a PhoneTag tag or Smart Band on what you love. A simple scan notifies you with a direct message or rings your phone with live audio or video call. No app for them.
Your phone rings. It's your child's bus attendant, calling from the tag on their backpack.
PhoneTag lets anyone with your loved one reach you in seconds: a teacher, a coach, a bus driver, a neighbor, or a stranger who's helping. It's a small, tough tag with a QR code, clipped to a bag or keys or worn on the wrist with the PhoneTag Smart Band. One scan with any phone camera rings your phone. There's no app to download, no number to dial and nothing to sign up for, and your contact info stays completely private.
FOR THE MOMENTS THAT MATTER
• A pickup mix-up, and your child has no phone
• A parent with memory loss wanders, and a stranger stops to help
• A coach needs you right now, and your number is in a folder at home
• A lost bag, keys or luggage on its way back to you
HOW IT WORKS
1. Clip a PhoneTag to a backpack, jacket, bag or keys, or wear one on the wrist with the Smart Band
2. Anyone who needs to reach you scans the code with their phone camera
3. They choose how to reach you: a live video call, a voice call, or a direct message with text and photos
4. Your phone rings like a real call, right on the lock screen, in the car or mid-podcast
A test call rings your phone the moment you activate a tag, so you know it works before you ever need it.
MEET YOUR AI ASSISTANT
Driving, in a meeting, on a plane? Your AI assistant picks up in a natural voice and works for you:
• Greets the caller, tells them whose tag they scanned and what to do next
• Answers their questions using notes you write, like allergies or "please wait with him, Mom is on the way"
• Speaks the caller's language
• Takes detailed messages, with full transcripts waiting in the app
• Hands the call to you the moment it needs the real you
Set it to answer every call, or only the ones you miss.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Your phone number is never shown, shared or dialed
• Calls happen inside PhoneTag, and callers see only what you allow
• See where every scan happened on a map, with one-tap directions
• Pause any tag instantly, and block anyone with one tap
FEELS LIKE A REAL PHONE, BECAUSE IT SHOULD
• Full-screen incoming calls with ringtone, answer and decline
• Missed a call? Get a voice message or a text with photos, plus the scan location
• Live text chat and photo sharing before, during or after a call
• Every conversation saved: who scanned, where, when and what was said
THE WHOLE FAMILY
• Up to 12 tags and Smart Bands on one account
• Add family members, and whoever is free picks up
• Direct call links let a school iPad, a Chromebook or a Wi-Fi-only phone ring you with one tap, no tag needed
BASIC IS FREE. PLUS IS OPTIONAL.
Every tag works for free: messages, scan alerts with location, and your private number, with no subscription.
PhoneTag Plus adds live video and voice calls and the AI assistant for every tag on your account. Your first 30 days of Plus are free when you activate your first tag. After that, keep Plus only if you choose. If you do nothing, your tags keep working on Basic.
PhoneTag. One scan away from home.
