Managing a call log of a communication device can include generation of a display list with list entries that are derived from the log entries of the call log, and provision of the display list for a user of the communication device. The order of the list entries in the display list can be determined by an evaluation of at least one criterion (e.g. current device parameters, current connection parameters, upcoming or current calendar events, a previous frequency of contact with the communication partner to whom the log entry is assigned, previous acceptances/rejections when contacted by the communication partner to whom the log entry is assigned, weather data, for example, temperature and/or precipitation at the time the display list was generated.
