Ratings and Reviews
Favourite list
When you dial some one from favourite list and talk to some one. After talk you try to end the call and hit the button to end the call at that time if person you have called end the call moment before you hit the call end button you end up calling some one on your list as previous call screen closes. This happens with favourite list and recent call list. Is there any way from stopping it happening?
Lacks updates but does the job.
The built in phone app for iPhone works functions just as it is intended (by Apple)—but here’s one thing: it’s outdated. You cannot record calls. You cannot paste a phone number in the Keypad. You cannot decline a call when your iPhone is locked (you can do that by pressing the Power button twice; but it’s not intuitive) and it’s just too basic.
Apple has created some of the best softwares out there, with great functionalities and features and awesome user interfaces, but have not changed a quite lot from the basoc apps that they ship with each iPhone: something they should pay even more attention to.
Privacy wise, it lacks at a very crucial area: it doesn’t show if the caller is recording your call. Doesn’t show any more information. The Recents tab has a bad UI. You cannot filter calls. And you accidentally click off a contact tile and you call them. It’s just uncool. Voicemail doesn’t work here in India. There’s a lot to complain, but let me tell something, again.
It works. Not something really ‘awe-inspiring’ from Apple, but it is what it is. It does the job at the end of the day, and nails the core job: you can call anyone and hear it out nice and crisp.
Feedback for the Apple Phone App
* iswear users will praise you if you implement below mentioned features *
While the Apple Phone app is generally user-friendly, there are several areas where improvements would enhance the overall experience:
1. Call Management: The merging of all calls into one place makes it challenging to manage multiple calls effectively. It would be helpful to have clearer separation or options for managing each call individually.
2. SIM Card Switching: The current process for switching calls between SIM cards is cumbersome. A more intuitive way to switch SIM cards before placing a call would be a significant improvement.
3. Dialer Editing: If I make a mistake entering a phone number, it’s frustrating that I can’t easily edit a digit in the middle of the number. A simple tap to edit would greatly enhance the user experience.
4. T9 Dialer: The absence of a T9 dialer for easier number entry is noticeable. Adding this feature would simplify dialing, especially for frequent contacts.
5. Lock Screen Call Control: The inability to cut or end a call directly from the lock screen is inconvenient. It would be helpful to have this option readily available.
6. Call Waiting Management: When on a call, there’s no straightforward option to end an incomming call as it sends the waiting call to voicemail.
