Just like you can add a mailto:address.com in a list and make it actionable, you should be able to do the same with a phone number, with something like a tel: or callto: prefix. The ability to tap a phone number and make a call would make the phone layout version of a report much more valuable.

Adding tel: and sms: URL Scheme to the URL web category
Users of my report want to be able to take action immediately and conveniently by calling or messaging numbers detailed on rows. A URL that activates the default phone or messaging app once clicked would be ideal. This is similar to browser based functionality common to most modern browsers.
