Another One UI 9.5 app has hit our desk ahead of its official release, revealing some of the changes Samsung is making. The app in question is Phone, and at least one noticeable change is shared with many of the other first-party apps Samsung is updating for One UI 9.5.
As you can see in the screenshots below, the Phone app now has the search button in the bottom bar instead of the top, next to the Keypad, Recents, and Contacts buttons.
Samsung has also made it easier to message a number directly from the Phone app. When you enter a number in the keypad, a message button appears to the left of the call button.
