How to directly call extension numbers
Updated over 2 weeks ago

If you need to reach a specific person or department at a company using an extension number, you can pre-dial the extension when you initially make a call by inserting a pause. In order to do so, you (1) dial the desired number, (2) add two commas (,,) and (3) enter the extension number. The comma (,) means that the app dials the main number, waits two seconds, then dials whatever extension that appears after the comma.

To call an extension number from the Keypad

  1. Open the InnoCaption app

  2. Tap Keypad at the bottom of the screen and enter the desired number

  3. Long hold the * button to add a comma (,) to the end of the number

  4. Repeat Step 3

  5. Enter the extension number after the commas

  6. Tap the green phone icon to place your call
