I'm not sure how you do this on Android, but for the iPhone it couldn't be much simpler[1]. Also, most mobile devices will detect and enable any phone number they find on the page, so just putting it there and easy to find is often enough.

- randall 13y agoI think they meant to allow click to call from any device, ala Twilio.
- toomuchtodo 13y agoI wonder how much demand there is in the tech community for both an iOS and Android app that receives push notifications that drop you right into the UX to make the call when a campaign of calls is necessary due to pending legislation.
- sinak 13y agoCrowdshout are doing something similar to this. Generally, push notifications are a great idea, though convincing people to download the app is trickier.
- nthj 13y agoClick to call isn't interesting because of connecting the actual phone number. It's a UX problem of minimizing the steps to figure out which Congressman belongs to the constituent visiting the page. [This gets way more complex on a state officials level.]
