Patrik Svatoš Each new system from Apple brings different news. Some are really good and people will appreciate them. But that's not always the case. For example, rejecting a call in iOS 7 is the subject of many questions. So how to do it?
In iOS 6, everything was handled simply – when there was an incoming call, it was possible to pull out a menu from the bottom bar, which included, among other things, a button for immediate rejection of the call. However, iOS 7 lacks any similar solution. That is, if we are talking about receiving a call while the screen is locked.
If you are actively using your iPhone and someone calls you, a green and a red button for accepting and rejecting the call will appear on the display. If your iPhone rings while the screen is locked, you have a problem. You can use the gesture as in iOS 6, but you will achieve the maximum opening of the Control Center.
You only have a button on the screen to answer the call, or to send a message to the other party, or set a reminder that you should call back. To reject a call, you must use the top (or side) hardware button to turn off the device. Press once to mute the sounds, press the Power button again to reject the call completely.
For users who have been using iOS for several years, this will surely be nothing new. However, from the point of view of newcomers (who are still increasing in huge numbers), it is a relatively unintuitive solution from Apple, which some may not have figured out at all.
Maybe even a pathological sign of minimalism.
Many things in ios7 look like design won over content :-(.
It is constantly shown that designers, architects, and similar quasi-artists cannot work on things without guidance.
if it was the design that won with ios7, I wouldn't put my hand in the fire for that. rather, the idea won over the content and form :-)
regardless of the fact that people need instructions for such a basic function as hanging up, that is "the chairman calling to heaven"
Why do I have the feeling that the iOS 7.0.2 version is still in the testing phase, but it just got out by mistake, even beginners don't make such primitive mistakes.
I meant it as Design from the point of view of the author of the design. Everyone else has a different opinion (as usual :D), but when the Designer is also at the top of the decision, it usually turns out that way - hehe :).
It's easy to read that it would be best if the entire ios were only one white area and something would be written here and there. Simply clean, minimalistic design presented by designers :D.
Technically speaking, even setting a reminder will reject the call. I started using it and I'm getting quite used to it. The Remind me when I'm home function is especially nice. Otherwise, I was also groping in the dark for a while, as I have been an iPhone user since the age of five, where the option to decline was right on the display, I did not know the double-press button trick.
Another change is related to this – when a person rejects a call, it is not displayed as missed on the lockscreen. It used to be like that and it helped when a person just hangs up and immediately calls back. Damage.
so it's quite a crisis when the user doesn't know how to reject a call. I really call this "user friendly iOS7"
Well, you know Apple goes with the correct SMER om - SD ;)
think different, voe…
:D
Throw that phone away if you're so mad. In your case, the green little man makes sure of that and I think you will be extremely satisfied with him. And here one more disgruntled commentator will disappear.
Rejecting a call by double-pressing the power button works, if I'm not mistaken, from the very first version of ios / iphone, so it probably won't be a problem in the designers...
Exactly. 1x the Power button turns off the ringtone, 2x rejects the call.
Yes, we also write it in the article. But this is no argument justifying Apple.
I have a broken Power on/off button and I am in…
You're not, the volume button works the same way. Do you guys use the iPhone at all or just look at it? I've been using it since version 1.0 imported from the USA and no one had to explain this or other functions to me, I'm probably above average intelligent.
And in Assistive Touch, there is no such rejection offer
Apple now looks as if the entire team left with Jobs. Unbelievable where this is going, basic things don't work or are illogical. :(
this opinion is really terrible :) What do you really want, innovation (which belongs to Apple) or to keep Jobs's old, now out-of-date style and condemn any change? iOS 7 is excellent and I personally really don't care how the call is rejected...
What is it excellent in, please, i.e. how much better than the previous version?
Well, if I take the design change as a subjective opinion (although the improvement seems absolutely obvious to me, it just looks more modern and cool again), then we have AirDrop, better sorting of photos into moments, etc., redesigned, improved in many ways Safari, better notifications and of course, the control center, improved folders, into which more stuff can be packed, and then a bunch of smaller details that you will only appreciate in practice. I had Golden Master on my iPhone, and then maybe I went back a little nostalgically to the last day of iOS 6. I was surprised myself how terribly old-fashioned and clunky I found the system. Maybe iOS 7 is not without bugs and Apple has a lot to tweak, but I'm very glad that he decided to do it and that we have him here :)
AirDrop is only on newer phones, photo sorting is OK. It was in Safari that I liked the old bookmarks better. I agree that development is necessary, but when I see the thousands of Apple employees (only that not all of them do iOS), I don't really understand why the system isn't caught more when errors are found by ordinary users (and I'm not talking about some super hidden ones).
AirDrop does not work even on the iPad3, which is still only one generation of iPads back, with the iPhone 4 it is understandable. As for Safari, there is really improvement, especially speed, but it's still a phone and the functions around calls should be logical. Rejecting the call was logical and simple even on the Nokia 5110 :) I will expect apple to realize this and fix these important details.
They play Tetris on Android phones.
Omg.
You're absolutely right, and if it's an innovation, to make some trick that doesn't work and the actions are hacked, that in order to use them, a person has to go to some website every day to learn them, then ok. Intuitive system heh.
How long have you been using Apple stuff? Half a year, a year? So don't lament here, like Apple this and that. Rejecting the lock button or pressing the volume button was already there long before the iOS6 version, only since iOS6 was - added - the rolling of the blinds and the possibility of rejecting a call in red. So Apple is back in v7. No one says that it is impossible to add it back to 7 points later. But it is definitely not an indication of the decline of Apple. Rate Apple and you will use it for at least 7-10 years, otherwise you act like you don't know things.
Conversely, rejecting a call by pressing the power button twice is an excellent feature. When the phone rings in my pocket and I don't want to take the call, I just reach into my pocket and blindly press the power button twice. I don't have to take my iPhone out of my pocket at all, and everything is done in two clicks. This is an absolutely excellent feature in my opinion, but someone just got it wrong. And it's also true that a call can be declined by setting a reminder, so I don't think there's necessarily a call rejection button.
yes, but no one knows about it, so it doesn't solve their problem. what's more, if you have a phone in your pocket and you don't know who's calling, you don't touch it so you don't know who called you - you press the volume button and that turns off the ringing sound and then you can wonder who it was (this is how I see it from my point of view)
OK, do you know that if you turn off the ringer, the caller can hear what is being said on your end? Sometimes it can be quite annoying :)
I'm not saying that the rejection of tl. it's bad, but with a touch phone, forcing me to use the buttons... :)
In addition, it seems to me a mistake that the reminder only has the option of "departing from the place", I would rather like "when I arrive at the place".
I don't know, but I would probably be quite annoyed if I accidentally touched the call rejection button while taking my phone out of my pocket.
In addition, the power button seems to me to be a completely logical way to reject a call: someone is calling me, there is no button on the display, the home button on the locked screen (except for music control) has no function, the power button turns off the screen, so I say "reject = turn off" ' and I try to press it - it stopped ringing - that's weird, I was going to put it down, so what if I try again? And it is laid.
That's how I figured it out years ago.
Been using since 3GS…
I wonder if Apple's management is using the iOS 7 on the phone, or if they have the phone with this system in a display case behind glass or just in the laboratory for testing... I am personally sad that I messed up a perfectly functioning phone with the update he liked. I have a choice to wait for version 7.4.3 or to buy a non-Apple phone and try to force it to communicate with the last Apple services and with the Apple computer, Store, notepad...
During an incoming call, press the side button once to adjust the volume. The ringing will be silenced - and when the caller hangs up - you will have info about the missed call on the screen and you can call him directly when you have time. Don't forget to turn off voicemail forwarding:
CANCELLATION OF ALL FORWARDS
Write the code ##002# without spaces and send as a call
I didn't know until now that there was another option to reject than the power button :-) and how wonderful it was, I'm usually somewhere where I can't pick up but I forgot to turn off the sound, so I quickly turn it off in my pocket instead of pulling it out the sound of my ringtone and I was looking for a sw button, this is a great feature for me, I hope he doesn't throw it away
Rejecting a call with the power button does not suit me - the information about the missed call will not remain on the locked screen. I use the remind function, but it only offers me "IN AN HOUR" or "WHEN I LEAVE". Is it possible to set a shorter reminder time than one hour? Thanks for advice.
Great tip! I didn't know about this option at all.
