Android dialer not automatically dialing numbers in new versions of an app

[CMCC ITS]

Hi all,

We have had an app for a while now that is in constant developement(mostly just changing phone numbers and names, maps etc.) The basic structure doesn't change, just information in the app.

The problem we are facing is that some older versions of the app, when we click a button to dial a phone number, it inputs the phone number into the dialer and actually initiates the call.

Without having changed any extra information, just numbers that are being dialed, the phone call isn't automatically initiating and we have to hit the call button in newer versions of the app.

Does anyone know how to get around having to hit the call button?

Thanks.

For context. The button being pressed is 

'When [btnCall] .click

 do (call) [phonecall1] .makephonecall

This is all of the code, and phonecall1 is a phone number we have with pauses included.

Google have changed permissions requirements:

You may also need to update your companion app via the AI2 > Help > Companion Information dialog (not via Play Store)

Search the forum for "permissions" lots to read....
