Numbers above 999 in the Android Notes module

Post by Kjell »

Numbers above 999 in the Android Notes module
automatically creates a link (underlined with green color) to the dialer.

Couldn't find any topic on this. Must be a bug.

The only reason I can think about, for a number to be linked to the dialer is a telephone number.
Telephone numbers belongs (in my world) to the Contacts module.
Why mess up the Notes module with this beaviour ?

The main use of the Notes module can't be to store telephone numbers!
The main use should be for information that don't fit elsewhere, like
budget plans, credit card and account numbers, software license numbers,
dates and numbers in a personal logg, hardware related numbers,
mail account numbers, IP-addresses ... the list is long.

Please remove this clutter, or at least an option to not use it.
Thanks

Still waiting for ability to disable the auto-hyperlinking of numbers.
It's very annoying !
