Enabling a caller to automatically interrupt a currently active call. In one embodiment, a call manager receives a request from an interrupter that may indicate an urgency, an identification, an authorization, and/or other reason to interrupt the current call between a target party device and a bystander party device. Warning messages can be provide to the target and/or bystander party. The call manager may automatically connect the call or determine whether to connect the interrupter based on one or more criteria predefined by the target and/or the interrupter. Alternatively, the target may make the determination based on information about the requested interruption. The bystander party device may be placed on hold, or a conference call may be initiated automatically. Call management may be performed directly, or through one or more network carriers. A rejected interruption may be routed to voice mail. After completing the interruption, the original call is reestablished.
