Google Tests ‘My Calling Card’ in Phone App Beta to Control How Your Calls Appear

The option is live for testers in the Google Phone beta, hinting at a wider release soon.

Overview

  • Android Authority enabled the new setting in the latest Phone by Google beta, revealing tools to create a personal card with a photo, fonts, and colors.
  • Users can choose who sees their card—only contacts or everyone—and recipients who have already customized a caller’s card will keep their own version.
  • The control closes a long-standing gap in Calling Card, which previously let users change only how others’ calls appeared on their own device.
  • A nonfunctional 'My calling card' toggle spotted in October now works in beta, indicating the feature is moving toward public launch.
  • The feature is not in the stable app yet, and coverage suggests it could roll out across Android phones, including Samsung Galaxy devices, after testing.
