Not sure if I understand this. If you mean start dialing by name or number, I can do this on my Android.
- egypturnash 8y agoEach number key has three letters associated with it. So you hit the numbers that correspond to the letters in the name; presumably the phone would display a list of all the contacts that matched - with the example of typing 666 to get “Mom”, first you’d see every contact whose first letter was M, N, or O, then every contact whose second letter was also on the 6 key, and so on until you were down to one and hit the dial button.
