Because I hate typing on mobile devices I don't like texting.
If you try to have a conversation with me over text Imma either call you if it's important or start giving you one word answers to everything.
Thankfully most people know better than to try and communicate with me in general!
Ok
Thing is that you can have a chat protocol and be asynchronous in communicating with text messages. That's something you can't have with voice calls.
Ohh, I'm fully aware.
I love messaging even I have a physical keyboard infront of me.
It's specifically the mobile keyboards I hate.
Oh I can totally relate with that. Mobile touchbased Keyboards are the worst. I loved my blackberry, and earlier Palm Pre, for having physical tacticle keys.
You could try using voice transcription.
Are you able to use voice type?
Text to call. I also really like calls, but scheduled. Calling randomly to chat means you're taking my undivided attention for however long you want whenever you want and that's super disrespectful of my time
Then don't answer?
It's not like sending the call to voicemail is going to hurt my feelings.
Asking to call seems redundant. The call is the ask.
Just use predictive text and select whatever the most unhinged option that communicates your point. Only exception is that I draw the line are the constant attempts that thing tires to flirt with my mum. Seriously, the amount of 💘 😘 it suggests is concerning. I'm not American.
