How can I save a number during a phone call? The scenario is that I'm calling someone to get the phone number of someone else. If I just type the number in the dialer, it disappears when the call ends.
Opening some kind of notepad application is cumbersome both saving and retrieving: tap home, tap applications, find the application, start a new note, type number, end call, copy number, paste number into the dialer (how to do the last step is another question)
While on call, click the Home button, go to Contacts, and add a new contact. The active call stays in notifications and you can bring it back up anytime.
I have a Samsung Galaxy, and when I am on a call, I have the ability to create a memo by pressing the menu key and selecting the memo option.
It is not a perfect answer but most note applications should support automatic hyperlink creation with phone numbers. In my case I use ColoreNote and the process would be "open app" -> "create new note" -> "write #" -> "hangup" -> "click on number" and the call starts...
On my phone (Oppo A71), the number does not disappear when the call ends. I can also take a screenshot of that with 3 fingers.
