Research direction
The issue names no files. Start by finding where the numeric dial pad layout and the long-press symbol list for the 0 key are defined in the Kotlin source. The thread is unresolved: it asks to swap the minus key for plus and possibly trim the long-press symbols, and it has had no comment for about 280 days. Get a maintainer decision on the symbol set before changing anything. Done means the agreed symbols appear on the dial pad and the long-press list.

Feature description
When editing a contact and selecting the phone number, the keyboard changes into a numeric dial pad.
This is great, but:
- I would replace the minus/dash sign (-) to the right with a plus sign (+). Perhaps I have a biased experience, but I never used “-“ in any phone number, while I use “+” for every new contact to type the country code.
- If the previous request is accepted, remove the plus sign from the list of symbols that appear when long-pressing “0”. If the previous request is not accepted, remove the minus sign from the same list because it is a duplicate of what already appears in the “main” dial pad.
- Perhaps, again, it is my limited experience and it is different in other countries, but I never used commas, dots or slashes in phone numbers (in addition to the minus sign). If it is the same for other people, maybe the list of items that appear when long-pressing “0” could be simplified.
Happy 2026 to everyone!!
