The Gakuran Phone
The phone is the hub for almost every non-combat system in Gakuran: money, jobs, music, the server-wide message board and eight playable retro games. Other players can physically see your screen when you have it out.
Apps
| App | What it does |
|---|---|
| Messages, Dial, Contacts, Recents | Cross-server calling and texting. Socialink is how you add contacts. |
| MIXI | Server-wide interactive message board — the closest thing the game has to a public feed. |
| Yenapp | Your wallet. Shows your Yen balance, your searchable wallet tag, and a running log of spending and income. Yen buys drinks, food and items from vending machines and Gakumart. |
| Japanify | The in-game music player: community-chosen Japanese and punk tracks, with playlists and a liked list. Every track is reviewed by the team before it goes in. |
| Indeed | Job board. Apply for shifts as a Gakumart cashier or as a member of the school newspaper to earn Yen. |
| WeatherApp | In-world weather readout. |
| MyPhone | Status dashboard: your phone number, Yen balance, saved contacts, messages sent and received, call count and total call time. |
| Camera | Selfies and photos from the phone itself. |
Getting a job and earning Yen
Open Indeed and apply for a shift: cashier at Gakumart or a spot on the school newspaper. Wages land in Yenapp, which shows your balance, your searchable wallet tag and a full transaction history. Yen buys drinks and food from the vending machines around the school and the streets, and consumables at the Gakumart register. Yenapp also sends and requests money from other players directly, so trades between students settle through the phone rather than in person.

Headphones and private music
Headphones are a head accessory with a 17% roll chance, and they are not just cosmetic: pair them with the music app and your character listens privately while walking around instead of broadcasting. Details on the accessories page, track list on the music page.
