How to make a phone call?

In VXT, we have different ways to initiate a phone call via the dialer of the app and by clicking a phone number from other applications.

Using the dialer

1. Click the dialer on top of the screen.
   
2. Browse through the list or input a name or a phone number to choose a contact you wanted to reach out.

Note: Number input always requires the inclusion of the prefix symbol plus (+), otherwise, it’ll generate an error.

3. Drag your arrow to highlight the user you wanted to select and tap to initiate the call.

💡 You can now use different in-call features. See the downward section to know more.

4. When you decide to end the call, click the red hang-up button at the corner of the call prompt.

Click-to-call is a feature enabling users to start a phone call directly from another application with a simple click on a phone number. You can learn more about it here.
