Adding Pauses to Contacts Numbers

When you call automated systems (like banking services), you
are often required to enter a password or account number.
Instead of manually entering the numbers each time, you can
store the numbers in your Contacts along with special characters
called pauses.

Wait — A hard pause stops the calling sequence until further input

from you.

2-Sec Pause — A two-second pause stops the calling sequence for

two seconds and then automatically sends the remaining digits.

Tip: You can enter multiple two-second pauses to extend the length of a

pause. For example, two consecutive two-second pauses cause a total
pause time of four seconds.

Note: Keep in mind that pauses count as digits towards the 32-digit

maximum.
