First, it looks great.

When I went to install the app the permissions were kind of onerous: Modify your contacts, Read phone status and identity, reroute outgoing calls, etc. Can you give some color as to why these are necessary?

Contacts: so that you can tag people from your phone's contacts instead of having to type them out by hand. We don't actually modify any contacts, so we should probably just be using the "Read contacts" permission only.

Phone status / calls stuff: needed to be able to detect when you receive or make a call so that we can stop recording. I'm not sure why it's called "Reroute outgoing calls" except that it lets you get a callback when a call is placed.
