The full journey in order: the artist opens a payphone, then a fan books and calls.
Read top to bottom. It starts with the artist because nothing exists to book until one opens up — sign up, set hours and prices, work a night, get paid — then it switches to the fan discovering that artist, booking, and taking the call. Built in the Apple language from your screenshots: true black on soft dark cards, a floating glass tab bar, huge left titles, the two-tone headline, the glyph trio, the reservation card. One adaptation: Apple's action blue is the payer, so gold is the artist's chrome, blue is the fan's, and money is gold on both. Twenty-two screens; toggle dark/light at the top right.

TRACK TWO
The fan's phone · system blue
Now the other side: a fan discovers an artist who is already open, books, and takes the call. Ten screens. Blue is her action color everywhere, exactly as Apple uses it; gold appears only where money does.
Phase D · Getting in
The welcome screen is your first screenshot, translated: two-tone headline, glyph trio, fine print, one pill.
Phase E · Booking
Tonight is the Support home: big title, avatar, search, a rail, and rows.
Phase F · The wait
The reservation card from your screenshot, doing the job it was born for.
Phase G · The call and what she keeps
Glass dock, gold add-time, and a Booked tab that holds everything after.
TRACK ONE
The artist's phone · gold
Where the whole thing starts: nothing exists for a fan to book until an artist opens a payphone. Twelve screens, gold throughout, and every number he sees is what he keeps.
Phase A · Setting up
Three screens, done by the artist. Nobody sets it up for him: he installs, verifies his own number, and opens.
Phase B · The night
A queue, not an inbox. He opens the app once at 7 PM.
Phase C · After
The money is gone before he closes the app.
Part 1 · The artist sets up
It starts here because nothing exists to book until an artist opens a payphone. He does it himself: verify his number, build the profile fans see, get verified and connect payout, then actually add his hours (and drops) and build his price menu.

Where your money goes
Add a debit card and your cut lands the second each video call ends.
You keep80% of every video call
PayoutsInstant, no minimum
Link a debit card
Stripe sets up your payouts and verifies your identity in one step, on their secure screens. Pay Phone never sees your card number or SSN. Takes about a minute.
Use a bank account instead (1–3 days, free)
Do this later
KYC lives on Stripe, not here. Tapping this opens Stripe's own hosted setup, which collects the debit card AND runs identity verification together — we never build an SSN screen or hold that data (Stripe Connect Express). Debit is the confirmed default: fans pay by card, so those funds are instant-payout-eligible the second a call ends, while bank/ACH waits for settlement. Bank stays as a free 1–3 day fallback.
Link a debit card → Stripe hosted setup (card + identity) → back here, verified → Your hours · Do this later → skips straight to Your hours; can't OPEN the payphone until payouts are done

Dre Vaughn on Pay Phone

Open the link
This is how a fan actually gets in. She never opens the app cold and hunts for "Get started" — she taps the link Dre texted, which deep-links her straight to his payphone. The link is the entry point, which is exactly why the old welcome button made no sense.
Tap the link → deep-links to Dre's payphone (step 09) · installs the app or opens web booking as needed

The screen that makes an artist tell another artist. One giant gold number, then rows shaped exactly like Support Tools: squircle, fact, amount.
Rows → per call breakdown · reserve applies only to a new payphone, first 30 days or $2,000
The one-glance rule, restated for this language: blue is the person paying, gold is the person being paid, and money is gold on both phones, in both modes. The glass bar's active bubble tells you whose app you are in before you read a single word. Use the toggle at the top to flip every screen at once.
