How to end a call when you have navigated away from the call screen

[Hirochan1983]

Hi there,

When on an active call on my Samsung Galaxy S8 I sometimes need to navigate away from the call in order to use other apps. When I do this I can't actually find a way back to the call. This is especially a problem when I want to end the call. I can see the active call flashing with a thin green bar at the top of the screen but when I tap that (a la iPhone) it just opens the notifications bar. I also can't get back to the call by going to the Telephone app. It just shows me the keypad and looks as though I could actually make another outgoing call - but the existing call is still connected and I can hear the person on the other end of the phone. How can I end calls / go back to the active call screen once I have navigated away?

Thanks

You can set up the device from the calls menu to end calls using the power button...

There should be a notification with options when the notification shade is extended. Hanging up is one of the options (red phone receiver icon). You can also tap the notification and it will take you directly back to the call screen for the current call.
