Similarly, on the iPhone, there's that switch on the side that silences it, but I've been burned by not realizing it that hides the existence of a phone call and sends it straight to voicemail, and only later alerts me that it happened at all.
Edit: it doesn't seem to do that anymore, but it definitely did at least twice, when I didn't have DND on.
- simonklitj 6y agoIt shouldn’t do this. You can go to Settings -> Phone -> Silence Unknown Callers, which will send callers not in your contacts to voicemail, but the silencer simply mutes audio. It still vibrates and receives calls. Or maybe there’s something I’m missing?
- SilasX 6y agoWell, it did do that. I checked, and that setting is off. Almost like Apple products can have unintended bugs like disabling your alarm on OS update.
- simonklitj 6y agoEasy now. I didn’t say it didn’t do it, I said it shouldn’t do it. You made it sound like you thought this was what was supposed to happen, and I just wanted to help you out. Edit: Apologies if the last sentence in my first message seemed rude. Not my intention.
- jimbob21 6y agoYou must have it on do not disturb. I exclusively keep my phone on silent (but within view) and have no problems answering calls because it pops up on the screen.
- SilasX 6y agoNo, it wasn't on that at the times it happened.
- reading-at-work 6y agoThat's weird, that's not the case for me. Mine still goes through the length of ringing with the call on the screen.
