Smart Dialing makes it easy for you 

to dial a phone number.
When you start entering a phone 

number or contact name, Smart 

Dialing will automatically search and 

sort the contact entries on the SIM 

card, in Contacts, and the phone 

numbers in Call History (including 

incoming, outgoing, and missed 

calls). You can then select the desired 

number or contact from the filtered 

list to dial.

Smart Dialing starts looking for numbers or contacts that match the 

sequence you have entered. Below are some tips on how to use Smart 

Dialing to quickly find a desired phone number or contact.

Simply enter the first one or two digits to find a phone number in Call 

History.

Enter the first three digits or more if you want to find a phone number 

from the saved contacts on your device and SIM card.

You can just enter the first letter of a contact’s first name or surname. Smart 

Dialing will search for the letter starting from the first character of a contact 

name as well as from the character that appears after a space, dash, or 

underscore in a contact name. For example, if you tap number “2” which is 

associated with [a, b, c] on the Phone keypad, contact names such as the 

following will be considered matches: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “John-

Carter”, “Carter, Ellen”, “Dixon, Allan”, “Thomas_Clark”, “JaneCampbell”.
If the matching list is long and you want to narrow down the search further, 

enter another letter. Using the same example above, if you continue to 

tap “3” which is associated with [d, e, f], the matching list will be narrowed
