In Phone app, add new number to existing Contacts from Recents in iOS 26

I received a phone call from someone who is part of an organization I have in my Contacts. However, this is a new phone number, not any of the numbers I currently have for that organization. In iOS18 it was easy to see a phone call in Recents, tap the 'I' icon, and tap 'Add to Existing Contacts'. In iOS26, I just can't figure out how to do that. 'Add Name' doesn't seem to do it. Thanks for any help.

iPhone SE, iOS 26

Thanks, Sberman. I also found the other way that I was looking for: in the 'Recents' list, long-press on the 'I'. In the options that come up, you'll see Add to Existing Contact and Create New Contact.
