September 14, 2026

Jotform’s Phone Call Button widget makes it easy for users to get in touch with you directly from your form. Respondents can simply tap the button to call a phone number from their device, making it useful for sales inquiries, appointments, customer support, and other situations where a quick call is helpful. You can also customize the button text, add an extension, and set availability hours to fit your needs.
