I'm in a ranting mood so bare with me. Why. Just why tf can't apple add support for a t9 dial pad? It's so much more convenient. Apple has to create such a good user experience but always throw a stupid petty kink in it to make me lose my hard on for apple. And when I go in and try to set new text notification sounds and don't like all their inhouse generic sounds and want to put something more personal and relative to my tastes I download Zedge only to find out it's 1/50th of the experience as what you find on Android. Don't get me started with audio codecs and Bluetooth file sharing omission. I'm sure most of this boils down to apple not putting money in anyone's pockets but theirs even at the cost of a better end user experience.

I know you’re getting downvoted, but I kinda agree. No reason it should not be there. You want one handed use, t9 dial by name would allow easy one handed dialing. But like everyone else, I guess contacts app or even Siri is the excuse.

Of course I'm getting down voted lol. It literally hurts nothing. If you don't wanna use t9 then don't use it. Not everyone wants to talk to their phone. Just like a headphone jack. Nice to have it if I need it. Doesn't hurt to be there.
