Features

Explore the device system, built-in apps, media, social features, integrations, and developer platform included with Free Phone.

Features

Free Phone combines a persistent roleplay device, a broad app ecosystem, and server-authoritative integrations in one resource. Every built-in app uses the Sky UI design system with coordinated light and dark themes.

Device and identity

  • Unique physical phones with an IMEI and item-bound data
  • Optional persistent virtual phone per framework character
  • Registered and anonymous physical SIM cards
  • Optional persistent automatic numbers without SIM items
  • Sky Cloud accounts for supported cross-device synchronization
  • iPhone-inspired lock screen, passcode flow, notifications, Control Center, and hardware buttons
  • Configurable F1 default with FiveM-aware key capture, plus a usable inventory item
  • 15 bundled locales, including English and German, with English fallback

Server configuration and administration

  • /phonepanel → Phone configurator → General groups devices/SIMs, framework/integrations, phone-use restrictions, and keyboard/commands with field help.
  • General and the detail sections share one draft; save with the header checkmark.
  • SQL configuration is enabled by default. File mode is optional, while the Configurator switch, command permissions and custom-tone registration always remain file-owned.
  • Independent switches control per-item device identity and physical SIM service. Native ESX and hex inventories force both off because they cannot persist item metadata.
  • Phone-owned ACE registration uses the familiar Config.CommandPermissions group lists; protected actions recheck permissions on the server.
  • Key selection/capture stores real FiveM IDs, including German Ü as OEM_1. Existing personal FiveM bindings keep priority over changed server defaults.

See Configuration and permissions for setup, restart requirements, the permission migration and troubleshooting.

Media platform

GIPHY powers optional GIF search. Gallery imports are limited to explicitly configured HTTPS hosts, and sensitive media credentials stay in SQL configuration or the server-only media file, depending on the selected configuration mode.

  • Salted social-app password hashes with configurable server peppers
  • Hashed device passcodes, attempt limits, and lock timers
  • Automatic database installation and versioned runtime migrations
  • Command-only LB Phone migration with dry run, idempotent retry, and rollback support

  • Explicit custom-app permission policies

Developer platform

External resources can register native apps, send app messages and notifications, store scoped app data, create billing invoices, inspect CrewLink groups, and create controlled CrewLink pings. The compatibility layer also exposes aliases for supported third-party phone contracts.
