To me the BIGGEST annoyance is the iOS “End call” button. Just as I’m about to tap it, the other person ends the call and what I’m actually tapping is some other person on my call list that it then immediately calls. Even if I end the call quickly they often call back confused “You called, what did you want?” Apple: PLEASE add a delay to touch input after the call screen closes.

Happens to me far too frequently as well!

My solution would account for this as well. The solution needs to be global. Literally, if any part of the screen just changed (except for watching videos, which would make them impossible to interact with), add a small interaction delay where taps are no-op'd.

  Video shouldn't count as the screen changing, it should just be an area of "media". It's appearance or disappearance could be counted as a change, but not the contents of the area itself. That could be a global rule to save much exception making.

It's gotten better, but using navigation. It tells you which lane you need to----nope, calendar Appointment. and the notification doesn't self-dissapear, so stressed navigation also includes a ham-handed reach and swipe up to make the appointment dissapear. Hope it wasn't important. The screen is MASSIVE folks. SO MANY PIXELS. keep the GPS AND the calendar appointment.

Confirmation before calling would be nice. I've accidentally made calls when trying to get more information about a missed call. (I've also had Siri pocket dial, but I e got that disabled now.)

  That too! 99% of the time I tap a missed call, it's because I want to see more info about the call or the contact or if there was a voice mail. My phone should never make a call unless I explicitly tap a big ol' "CALL" button. It should never be the default action for tapping on a contact or a missed call.

There's a bigger design philosophy or lack there of at play here. Why would the position where the end call button just was, be replaced by some other active area immediately after? It's just not right.
