Dial phone number listed in a task

It would be great to have a phone number stated in a task and have the ability to click on the number and pull up the phone application to begin the dialing process. Other apps recognize that a phone number is a phone number and present it as a hyperlink which will open the phone app systematically to begin the dialing process.
I use tasks often and put the phone number in but have to open up the task for editing, select the text that is just the phone number, copy the phone number, open up the phone app dial pad and then paste the copied phone number text into the phone app dial pad window.

Still not fixed. I see that not many people have requested this, I guess because they don't know about it...or they assume you wouldn't dare to omit it. it's incredibly convenient to open a task, click on the note and then click on the number to start the call. Wish you had the same feature on the desktop version, but may be harder to program that. Please don't leave this great feature off the new version! If you do, I will stick with the old as long as possible. Google Search has something similar -- if you search for a business, it will usually return a listing with a clickable phone number, both on the app and laptop versions.

Agree! In the current app, phone numbers in the Notes, show up as links and I can just hit the link and my iPhone will dial it. Not so in the Beta version
