How to Set Phone by Cubilock as Your Default Dialer App

This guide walks you through the process of changing your default dialer app on Android from the standard Phone app to Phone by Cubilock.

Overview

By default, Android uses the system Phone app to handle all incoming and outgoing calls. If you prefer to use Phone by Cubilock, you'll need to set it as your default dialer. This ensures that all phone calls route through Phone by Cubilock instead.

Requirements

  • Phone by Cubilock app installed

  • Access to your device settings

  • Settings app should be enabled in the policy

Method 1: Through Android Settings

This is the most reliable way to change your default dialer app.

Steps

  1. Open the Settings app on your Android phone

  2. Navigate to Apps or Application Manager

  3. Look for Default apps or Default applications

    • On some devices, this may be nested under Advanced settings

  4. Tap on Phone app, Calling app, or Dialer

  5. A dialog will appear showing all available dialer applications

  6. Select Phone by Cubilock from the list

  7. The system will confirm your selection—your default dialer is now set

Tip: If you don't see a "Default apps" option, your device may call it something different like "Calling accounts" or "Call settings." Try searching in Settings for "default" to find the right menu.

Method 2: Through the Phone by Cubilock App

Some apps provide a built-in option to set themselves as the default dialer.

Steps

  1. Open the Phone by Cubilock app on your device

  2. Tap the option and confirm when prompted

Note: Not all Android devices or versions may show this option within the app itself. If you don't see it, use Method 1 instead.

Verification

To confirm that Phone by Cubilock is now your default dialer:

  1. Go back to Settings > Apps > Default apps

  2. Check that Phone by Cubilock is listed as your default dialer app

Switching Back to the Standard Phone App

If you want to revert to the default Phone app at any time:

  1. Open Settings > Apps > Default apps

  2. Tap Phone app or Dialer

  3. Select Phone (or your device's default dialer name)

Troubleshooting

Phone by Cubilock doesn't appear as an option:

  • Ensure the app is fully installed from the Google Play Store

  • Restart your device

  • Check that you have the latest version of Phone by Cubilock installed

Default setting reverts after restart:

  • Some custom Android ROMs or device manufacturers may override default app settings

  • Try setting Phone by Cubilock as the default again through Method 1

For additional support with the Phone by Cubilock app, contact the app developer through the official support channels.
