Abstract

A first communication device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to receive, during a first call with a second communication device, an indication of a second call from a third communication device. The processor is further configured to monitor the first call, in response to the indication of the second call, for a pause in speech of at least a threshold duration. The processor is further configured to initiate, in response to detecting the pause in speech of at least the threshold duration, an audio message indicating call information associated with the second call.
