A brand new tweak has made its way to the Cydia store called AutoAnswer. As the name implies, it lets you set regular phone calls as well as FaceTime calls on auto answer. It is compatible with iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS only and is available for download at a price of $4.99. You can set specific numbers which will be auto answered either instantly or after a number of seconds you specify. There is also a “Stealth Mode” which can be used for remote surveillance such that the call will be answered automatically and also erase any record of it at the end.
There is also a feature to hide the application from Settings. If you do hide it, the only way to access it is by opening Phone.app , dialing ***** (5 stars) and pressing the Call button. You can change this password in my preferences. If you forget the password, you need to type the first 5 digits of your Phone’s IMEI in phone.app and press the call button. This will reset the password and all your settings. You can find your phone’s IMEI by dialing: *#06#
AutoAnswer has several uses like baby-watching over FaceTime, auto-answering specific numbers while driving, while using your phone with a Bluetooth headset, instant response to specific calls, unattended video conference (leave an iPhone in some place and call it via FaceTime, keep a constant connection etc) and the stealth mode which is an option that you can turn on/off.
You can download AutoAnswer from the BigBoss Cydia repository!
