Dialing contacts after a text message

[Scott Currence]

I upgraded yesterday morning to pie on my unlocked note 9 and three times yesterday and today my phone has dialed the people I have texted and one I just looked at a text from. Never has happened before the update. Anyone else having this issue?

Probably the Direct Call feature. I was having the same issue until I turned this off.

That sure sounds right. Everytime I texted and put the phone in my pocket. So it probably thought it was my ear. Go figure. I turned it off. This new with pie?

Not a new feature, just not working as well on pie.

I wondered because it just now gave me trouble. However it's a feature I didn't know about or use so I'm not worried about turning it off.

That did fix it though. I could put it up to my pocket and it would dial whoever was on the text screen. After, nothing. Thanks for the info everyone.
