This would have to be optional, as many wouldn't want it since it would make swiping between tabs more difficult. That said, I've seen implementations that have solved this, usually by doing something like making swiping on the name switch tabs and swiping from the thumbnail perform actions. Another possible solution would be to tap to call, as it already is, and to swipe right to text, since there's no screen to the left to interfere, and swiping left would still switch tabs. The problem with this is that it wouldn't work on the favorites tab, and that would make things inconsistent.

In a different app I use, there's an option to enable or disable a feature, allowing users to customize which swipe performs specific actions. The Samsung call app incorporates this feature effectively.

Hello, I wanted to suggest this but in another way.
The idea is to choose between "swipe tabs" and "swipe actions". The first is the actual behavior, and the second would allow to choose swipe actions for contacts and favorites (and call history, but it makes less sense for me).
A swipe action could be nothing, to call favorite number, to send a message, to see contact details…

I wanted to merge it with the issue #102. By swapping right we could call the favorite number, and by clicking we could choose the number to call.

Adding back needs triage until the UI/UX part is cleared.

Swipe actions can not be implemented without interfering with the view pager gestures. If and when this is implemented, it must be optional and turned off by default.
