[Bug 1490245] [NEW] usability issue when placing a call from today scope

 

Public bug reported:


There are actually three issues:

1) When you hit the red <Call> Button, the call isn't placed, but the dialer app is startet and a number is copied to the 
    dialer  field. You have to hit the green Button. I guess this is annoying. The red button says "Call" not "Start dialer".
2) When the call is done and you revert to the today scope, You are still in the Contact screen of the person you called.
    You have to hit the back button to call another favourite contact. Most (every!) time I called a person I am done with that
    contact. I don't need the contact details anymore. So after hitting <Call> it would be nice if the today scope would
    revert to the today main screen automatically.
3) You never see on which telephone number a person is called when you place the call from the favourites screen of the today 
     scope. You don't see the number on the contacts screen, and the dialer app shows the name only. It would be nice,
     if the dialer would show something like <Erwin Lindemann@office> or in addition to the name (Erwin Lindemann) the number.
