Feature description

It seems to me that the three dots menu associated with each item in the call history has (almost) the same content of what you get by long pressing that item. The only additional part is ‘call’, that I guess could be easily added to the ‘general’ menu.

Why do you want this feature?

Having a cleaner interface and more room for other information

It is in general menu already (at least when you have two SIMs in your phone as I do).

Personally, I use the three dot menu in the call list a lot, because it's faster than the long press - I do use the "call" option a lot as I have two SIM cards and regularly I need to call a contact from non-default SIM. So I would definitely miss the three dot menu... :-)

I see your point. Then, maybe the general menu might be simplified to avoid duplications. Having both seems confusing and redundant. At least to me.

I have been thinking about making it collapsible. The call and details buttons will still be one/two taps away. Examples:

A layout similar to the 2nd image will also solve #174

I like the design, but please don't forget about the users with two SIMs... 👼

Don't worry, I have 5 SIM cards now :)

Yes! And also the possibility to select several items by long pressing them should be maintained, to delete/message/block all of them simultaneously.

ahh that would be a welcome change as fossify never gets huge UI upgrades

I think atleast for me this app needs a FULL UI redesign
