Hi folks. I am constantly calling customers from my cell. Sometimes the idiots call me back in the middle of the night. I need an app that quickly toggles on and off the Hide Number feature in the phone's menu. I have been manually switching it on, but then i forget to turn it off again! Can anyone fnd an app like this? Thanks in advance!

just add 141 in front of the number....works in the uk!

but if you text.....there is no way that i know of to hide the number
 
there is a setting that you can select to hide your number in the phone menus

look under call settings

Please read the question. That IS what he's currently doing. He's looking for a widget that will do it instead of him having to go into the Call settings screen.

I've done some googling. Seems like a few others are looking for the same but with no luck.

there is an app, its a paid one though, cant see a free version.
but with BetterCut - Android you can create any shortcut you want.
 
Interesting wyyney...

Well, i found a workaround. There are a bunch of hidden codes for all gsm phones.

Check it: GSM Feature Codes

Dial #31# before the number you are dialing to hide your number!!!! Works every time.

Almost quicker than a widget would be! And no toggling, its a onetime use!
