I'm assuming there is some ML model running on-device which can detect whether or not the hold music is over.
When features like this are rolled out they almost never mention:
a) Battery usage
b) Heat
When I use my phone to record a video, it heats up.
When I use the Google Maps AR directions, it heats up and also drains the battery like crazy.
If your phone is heating up, and you put a skin or shell on it, is the phone and feature designed for this scenario? So if I'm on hold for 20 minutes, am I risking my hardware because they built this feature?
Users ought to reject advertising like this unless there is disclosure of how it will impact these things.
Also for how long can this feature run before killing my entire battery? What if I'm travelling and calling the airline from the airport with 25% battery? If this luxury costs me 15% battery for a 15 minute hold, I don't want it.
