Description

We switched from Skype to Wire a while ago and it turns out that a seemingly simple little feature is missing: while I have a chat history, I have no record of any calls I made (start time, end time, contact). With all the flaws that Skype had, this was a neat little feature that you could see in your chat history, when you started a call to the respective contact and when it finished (and its duration).

This can be very helpful, if you want to track such information for reporting or invoicing of support calls etc. We'd really appreciate, if something like this could be added. (I frankly don't understand, why this doesn't exist in the first place - can't really be a privacy issue, since the chat history records much more than a simple call log and that doesn't seem to be a problem.)

Thanks!

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by locating the existing call handling and chat-history implementations, then determine how call start time, end time, contact, duration, persistence, and display should fit together. Done would require an agreed design plus implementation and tests for the complete call-log flow.
