everyone says iOS is easy to use until this UI walks through the door:

The only thing I dislike about this is that the end call button is in the same spot as the decline call button. So if you mean to decline the new call, but you accidentally double tab and now you’ve hung up on your 40 minute hold.

1- "the call waiting UI sucks"

2- "you have call waiting?"

3- "you guys get calls during other calls?"

4- "you guys get calls?"

Understanding what a button does does not equal good ui design though

Exactly, the icons should be self explanatory or at least follow a consistent logic that is supplemented by the labels.

The first and third icon both show the action for the current call on the left and the incoming call on the right, but the decline button throws that out the window. It should be the opposite of the 1st button, with green on the left and red on the right, to indicate that you're staying on the current call and rejecting the incoming one.

I see your reasoning here, but if I get a call I don’t want - whether or not I’m in another call already - I’m gonna find and click the big red “fuck off” button ASAP. IMO this is the most time-sensitive (and kinda default) operation, so it should have the larger and visibly different button

You could make it big and still in the middle, but keep the pattern the same like the person suggests

What in the actual heavenly fuck is going on here

[-] GargleBlaster@feddit.org 30 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

I guess you're in a call and get an other call. Your options are:

End call one, accept the new call

Decline the new call

Put call one on hold and accept the new call

[-] osaerisxero@kbin.melroy.org 15 points 6 hours ago

This is correct. And the larger option is what will happen if you do nothing

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 hours ago

This UI seems... fine? Those are the three reasonable options, and the UI reasonably presents them. Am I missing the joke?

[-] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 9 points 6 hours ago

Its an Australian phone.

"Ring ring, wanna talk to Bill?"

"Nah, yeah."

[-] Bitflip@lemmy.ml 8 points 6 hours ago

Call waiting I think

[-] prettybunnys@piefed.social 5 points 6 hours ago

Someone cropped a picture to make it seem like it’s less informative than it is.

[-] gegil@sopuli.xyz 4 points 5 hours ago

As a lifetime android user, for me it is much easier to understand how to use the crappiest of the chinese vision on how the mobile ui should look like, then understand "why i cant swipe screen edge to go back"?

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 2 points 2 hours ago

TIL that you can do that.

[-] DougPiranha42@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

The phone functionality of the iPhone is not great.
If your phone rings, and you want to reject the call, the only option is to slide to answer the call. There is only that one control on the whole big screen, they didn’t find place for a second, red button or slider to reject the call. At least in the screenshot, apparently when you’re in another call, at least there’s a decline option.

[-] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 4 hours ago

in the lockscreen call ui (the one that’s full screen), you can also press the power button to decline

not the most intuitive thing ever but you don’t have to pick up the call just to decline afterwards
