5. Key behavior controls

5.1 Trusted-contact calling

Only contacts explicitly approved by caregivers ring through. Unknown callers are blocked or sent to voicemail. Caregivers can add or remove contacts at any time. This dramatically reduces scam and fraud exposure.

5.2 Outgoing-call controls

Outgoing calls can be limited to trusted contacts. Calls to unknown or high-risk numbers can be blocked. Caregivers can allow exceptions for doctors, pharmacies, or community numbers.

5.3 Repeat Dialing protection

teleCalm detects when the loved one calls the same number repeatedly. Caregivers configure thresholds for how many calls are allowed in a given time window. Excess calls are blocked and a reassuring message is played.

5.4 Quiet Hours

Caregivers set time windows where incoming, outgoing, or both types of calls are restricted. This prevents late-night calling and protects caregiver sleep while reducing nighttime confusion.

5.5 Scam and spam blocking

For the Caregiver Plan, only trusted contacts ring through. Unknown callers are blocked or sent to voicemail. For the Trust Plan, a three-digit challenge system blocks robocalls and learns trusted contacts over time.
