Obsolete Public Telephones is designed as a local archive for documenting retired public telephones, payphones, telephone booths, and related historical communication equipment.

The app does not require an account and does not collect personal information or transmit your archive records to the developer.

Local Archive

Information you add to Obsolete Public Telephones is stored locally on your device.

Your records may include:

• telephone identifier;
• telephone type;
• manufacturer and model;
• year of manufacture;
• country of origin;
• payment mechanism;
• construction materials;
• color and finish;
• preservation status;
• historical call cost;
• historical location;
• provenance and notes;
• tags and other descriptive details.

This information remains part of your local archive. The developer does not receive or maintain a remote copy of these records.
