Joining a call in a direct conversation used to show only yourself, which also made the app ring and report "No answer" while the other person was already talking, start the hold music, and label them as a guest in recordings. Hanging up no longer posts a "call ended" note while the call is still running, a call that drops now clears itself from the conversation straight away instead of leaving a dead Join button behind, and the call header and recording title now carry the other person's name instead of "Direct Message". Starting a huddle no longer claims the call is being recorded for the team.
