iPhone Phone Extensions from Dial Pad



Everybody knows the trick of putting extensions in the contact record with commas. 

But this is no help when you have to dial the same bridge line but with many different extensions. 

It's a total pain when you've gotten on the bridge like that and you get knocked off and you have to dial the whole thing again. It would be so nice to just hit redial.

Turns out Steve has anticipated our needs once again. You say, "but there is no comma (for pause) or semicolon (for wait) on the interactive dialer!" Ho-ho my friend I suggest you hold down the star or pound key a little longer and see what happens. That's right they become the other keys. How nice. 

So now I just input the bridge, the commas, and the extension, and then let it dial away, secure in the knowledge that I'll be able to easily redial. Yay!
