  2. Create a new contact, tap + (plus) or edit an existing phone details.
  3. Type the digits to dial into the phone number box, and then press and hold `.´ (period) key at the lower right of the keyboard.
  4. After you tap this key, a pop up menu appears.
  5.  ,comma - Pause
     (open parenthesis - Area Codes

     Xletter x - No Function
  6. Insert `,´ (comma) where you want the dialing to be paused (example +35850950777,12345). Comma would tell the dialing to pause about 2 seconds before sending the extension string. For longer delays you can insert more pauses.
