Hi,
I just switched from an Iphone to a Nexus 5, which I love, but ... Here are the issues I hate on the phone (dialler)-
-- When I use the dialler to call a number, a list of possible numbers comes up, not necessarily in the order I most frequently use them (e.g. Joe Blow home, office, mobile, fax are often in the wrong order). I have tried going into People and making the right one the default but it doesn't change anything.
-- When I bring up a number to dial, at the bottom of the page there appears a list of Nearby Places, which are usually irrelevant and not nearby at all. How can I get rid of them.
--- If I dial my own home, (in my own name, under Home), one of the unwanted options is an old office fax number I haven't used for years. It's not listed in any of the options in People, but always appears as one of the options when I search for my home number in the dialler. How do I delete it?
--- I have set widgets for frequently called numbers on my home screen, but surely there should be a short cut to these from within the dialler app?
--- I looked at an alternative dialler app, called ExDialler, in the Play store, to see if it would get around these issues, but I don't see how it differs from the native dialler. Anyone know if it does?
Thanks for any answers
Richard
