Flip Phone

The Flip Phone was a custom HUD that was added in the very first game of Baldi's Basics 1 1/2, The "Just Beginning" School. The HUD was replaced by the In-game Messages in The Renewed School.
== Appearance ==
The Flip Phone took on the appearance of a flip phone. On the GUI, the phone has a mobile data, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth logo on the top left corner of its screen. The battery is shown to be full and reads "100%", and displays the time "10:30 AM" in the top right corner of its screen.
The phone also contains a dial pad with all of the numbers (1-9) on it, including an octothorp, an asterisk button, a D-pad, and other buttons. There is even an emergency button near the bottom center that is colored red, and has the symbol of a 5-pointed star with a red exclamation mark inside.
The flip phone is capable of displaying multiple messages.
== Mechanics ==
Because it is a unique HUD, it can not be enabled in the character selection screen. Rather, the player can enable/disable the phone by going to the settings in the main menu.
When the game starts, the phone will not be visible on the screen, but after around 3 minutes, it will make a notification sound, wait 1 second, and display the tip message for a few seconds before sliding slowly out of view. Unfortunately, the messages that the phone shows are too minuscule to be read, thus making the HUD useless. The only thing that the HUD is useful for is when it is telling the player that a very unlucky event has happened via its warning screen.
The warning screen can initiate if Phonty begins to chase after the player. Prior to The Adequate School, if the player missed Clayton's class, then the warning screen would also show. Also prior to the aforementioned game, multiple other screens could show as well, but these screens were removed because they were too small to read.
== Trivia ==
* The notification sound that plays when the player receives a phone notification is the same notification sound that is used for some Verizon phones IRL.
