Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many phones, Pixels at least, default the eSIM to SIM 2. Currently it's easier to get hold of a physical SIM in an airport when you land so having your home SIM as an eSIM makes sense. However this also means that it's not the default in this app when dialling even if it's set to default in Android

Describe the solution you'd like
Have the default SIM in Andoid as the default SIM in the dialler. Even better would be to be able to swipe left / right to choose the default SIM in the dialler

Describe alternatives you've considered
Apart from looking at other apps nothing

Additional context

I see when dialing that esim is totally ignored with fossify phone app

By default, GrapheneOS phone app, an option pops up asking which sim to use and an option for it to remember the choice based on the contact. This would be good as now it can't be used with people that use multiple sims

It seems the esim isn't supported at all. Only main number will work regardless of android settings

@rightsaidfred99 What do you mean by "not supported at all"? I have a phone with eSIM and make calls via eSIM regularly...

It'll 100% choose to use Sim 1.

Using default dialer (GrapheneOS), the system will respect users choice of preferred sim at the system level, or a system level popup will occur when dialing so you can choose number to dial from

Fossify phone ignores this for me and just defaults to sim 1 no matter the system level setting
