Along the same lines, I occasionally find myself cursing iOS for its willingness to just bring up the dialer and call a number. I really, really wish that it would confirm any dialing before doing it, especially if you didn't click on a phone number on a contact. Couple times I've ended up dialing a recent spam caller, which is the last thing I ever want to do.

On top of that, the only possible interaction with the number is to call it or to not call it.

Want to copy the number into the clipboard to call it later, call it from a different app, or forward it to somebody else? Tough luck.

		There are a few options available if you press and hold it (Call, Message, Add to Existing Contact, Create New Contact, Delete). I feel this only make the fact that tapping calls without confirmation more annoying though.

		Occasionally, if you're lucky enough, an option to copy the phone number shows up, it seems like completely at the whim of the OS. And that's after accidentally starting to dial the number, of course.

iOS presents me with "Dial NPA-NXX-XXXX" and "Cancel" options in a bottom-raised dialog, when I tap a tel link.

I don't recall doing anything special to make this happen, but I wouldn't put it past me.

That may be specific to a web browser hyperlink. Click on an entry in your recent calls list and it'll immediately dial the number that called you.

		Got it, I missed the context. Agreed, now that I remember the self-training I had to do to avoid the issue, this is an obnoxiously awkward design choice!
