问HN:在什么情况下你希望手机给你打电话?
我一直以来都会假装接电话,以逃避一些尴尬的时刻——比如在咖啡馆里独自等待、被困在无聊的闲聊中,或者甚至是在毫无进展的会议上。假装有时有效,但说实话,往往比实际情况还要尴尬。
于是我开始着手一个小项目,叫做ComfortCall:一个能够从真实号码拨打电话到你手机的应用,提供简短自然的场景(比如友好的问候、同事的提醒或安全电话)。
我已经通过一个小型候补名单测试了这个想法,大家提出了一些我之前没想到的非常有趣的使用场景——例如:
需要一个“妈妈电话”来优雅地离开朋友家
在陌生人用不舒服的问题拦住你时有个借口
在深夜散步时感到更安全
在家庭聚会中毫无负担地逃离
我想问问HN社区:
你们还想到哪些场景,真实可信的电话可以让你优雅地退出?
我很想知道这个社区的想法——这将帮助我确定MVP的优先事项。
谢谢!

I’ve always faked phone calls to get out of awkward moments — waiting alone at a café, stuck in small talk, or even a meeting that’s going nowhere. Pretending worked sometimes, but honestly it often felt more awkward than the situation itself.<p>So I started tinkering with a small project called ComfortCall: an app that actually calls your phone from a real number with short, natural scenarios (like a friendly check-in, a colleague reminder, or a safety call).<p>I’ve been testing this idea with a small waitlist and people have already suggested really interesting use cases I hadn’t thought of — things like:
Needing a “mom call” to gracefully leave a friend’s house
Having an out when strangers stop you with uncomfortable questions
Feeling safer on a late-night walk
Escaping a family gathering without guilt<p>My question to HN:
What other scenarios come to mind where a real, believable call could give you a graceful exit?<p>Curious to see what this community thinks — it’ll help me shape what to prioritize for the MVP.<p>Thanks
