• Manage buddies

Using Buddy Lists

A Buddy list is a list of users/devices whose status—or presence—you can monitor. Users
update their presence setting, such as Be right back, Out to lunch, or Busy, and you can view
their status in real time from your Buddy list. You can also view your buddies' status from Lines
view and Home view.
In this section, you'll learn how to:
• Update your presence status
• Set up and manage a Buddy list
• Block people from monitoring your status
• Monitor your buddies from your phone

Updating Your Status

Update your status so that other people can monitor your status from their phones. When you
update your status, your status is automatically sent to the people watching you.
You can update your status to one of the following:
• Online
• Busy
• Be right back
• Away
• On the phone
• Out to lunch
• Do not disturb
