The use of the cell phone is greatly expanded in GTA IV. Niko Bellic can use the phone (given to him by his cousin Roman during the second mission) to call his friends and girlfriends to hang out and go on dates (with the girls), and can now receive text and picture messages from people. Niko can also use his phone to access cheats, go to multiplayer, and call emergency vehicles (like Police Cars, Ambulances, and Fire Trucks). Use of the phone can also trigger certain missions, like the The Holland Play.

The theme and ringtone of the phone can be changed via a website on the in-game internet. The two phones held by Niko at different stages of the game are Badger and Whiz.
