Is there a call app that displays more info on calls? (Company/Job Title)

[kameramandan]

Hi,

We use Galaxy S6s at work, and I'm wondering if there's a simple app that will display the contact's 'Company' and 'Job Title' fields on screen when they call me. I don't mind paying for the app, in fact I would prefer it rather than getting some bodgy free app that relies on full-screen popup ads and whatnot.

I am aware I can add company information to a contact's name field, however this is not an acceptable solution as the contacts are used elsewhere (CRM etc) and that stuffs all that up.

Thanks

Got it to work. I was editing contact in favorites. I modified the contact rather than favorites.

But I think OP wants that after you accept a call , no option for that

That would be weird since we both have unlocked and it's in the software. Of course I could see carriers stomping on that feature. I'm Verizon

I get that....I just dont get why the software doesnt run the show since the information is there. It's not like they can make money off it unless they are trying sell you caller ID premium which still wont give you stuff you input.

The software is pretty much universal between carriers so the sim decides what gets put in or deleted .

Like I put my Att sim I dont get Wifi calling or download booster but my tmobile sim I do for unlocked models carrier version probably just download booster if that carrier accepts it

I get all that.....I just dont see why something so minor would be trampled on. Then again I've never heard anyone ask about it before.

Yeah I agree

I don't have another option for OP or suggestions for app maybe other members can chime in .

Been looking for this too for years and that's how I found this thread. I've had quite a few different Android phones and tried dozens of different dialer apps but i've never had it show more than first name and last name.

It's kind of driving me bonkers. Im my job I have a large number of contacts and when they call me I often have no idea who it is because I can't remember by their name. If the phone it unlocked and I'm using it when they are calling I sometimes quickly open the contacts app and find them there and look for company etc, but if the phone is unlocked there's no way to even do that because there's no way to get out from the callscreen.
