== The Sims 3 ==
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'' all Sims (except babies and toddlers) have aan irremovable cellphone (smartphone in ''[[The Sims 3: University Life|University Life]]'') in their inventory from the beginning, meaning that Sims no longer needed to own a landline phone in order to be called, although landline phones arecan still availablebe in buy modepurchased for [[residential lot]]s only. Phones can be used to talk to friends, invite Sims over or out on a [[dating|date]], check real estate, throw parties, call for services, move, and plan for [[vacationing|vacations]]. Cellphones can also be used to take pictures and teleport back to a [[teleportation pad]]. If ''[[The Sims 3: Generations|Generations]]'' is installed, teens can make [[prank call]]s.
 
Like previous games, a telephone curfew is enforced from 2AM{{confirm}} to 6AM, during which any calls are rejected. However, there does not appear to be any effect in relationship if such a call is made. Calling a Sim who is currently at work will provide the player with the time that they should call back. Services can be called at any time of the day; however, the caller must be on their home lot or the option will be greyed out. Unlike previous games, [[child]]ren cannot call for any services, including emergency services.<ref group="n">Children can hire any service if the "call services" module of the [https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=579548 'No Stretch' Children can series] mod is installed.</ref>

==The Sims 4==
There are no home telephones in ''[[The Sims 4]]''. All Sims who are children or older automatically receive aan irremovable smartphone, similar to ''[[The Sims 3]]''. The phones (which cannot be sold, moved or removed) are at the bottom of the screen on the desktop interface instead of in a Sim's inventory. Unlike previous games, Sims can use their phones while sitting down. In addition to most functions included in ''The Sims 3'', Sims can use the phone to find jobs, pay bills, listen to music, and play games. The player can also change their Sims phone case from multiple options. A Sim's mood will also allow a Sim to send a text message associated with that mood to another Sim (e.g. a flirty Sim will be able to send a flirty text), which in some cases may result in the latter inviting the former to another lot.
 
Sims cannot chat with other Sims over the phone between 11pm and 7am. A Sim who attempts to call another Sim during this time will suffer a slight drop in their relationship with the targeted Sim. Attempts to use the ''Invite to hangout...'' function will also be unsuccessful (i.e. message will say [Sim name] is sleeping), but the Sim who initiated it will not incur penalties. Sims can call to arrange social events at any time, and those who are invited will show up. Sims are able to text other Sims regardless of the time of day with no relationship point penalty. Most other services will be available between 11pm and 7am, {{confirm|but Sims who contact repair services at this time may pay a higher rate.}} An inactive Sim may leave a message, asking if they can come over to the household's home. The player can accept or ignore (decline) the Sim's self-invite.
