Hello all,
This is a question that has been bugging me for quite sometime.
I was hoping that someone else would have asked the question
but it seems that I may be the first. That is unless I missed it!!
When I inadvertently tap the wrong contact on my phone list and then
realize I did and then hit the red hangup button, which takes less than one(1) second the person that I did not want to call has there phone
ring and tries to answer but nobody (me) is there.
It would seem to me with all the technology we have today and the
abilities of our smart phones that a short delay could be had to
minimize this from happening. Like maybe 3 seconds!!!
Is there a menu feature that I have not found that will allow this to happen?? And, if NOT then hopefully someone with the power can get it installed in the next iOS update!!
While on the topic another item that comes to mind.
When at the end of a call and the other person hangs up before I
can tap the red hang up button, the screen clears and I end up
tapping someone else on my phone list and the above happens as well.
I understand the speed and efficiency of technology we have today,
however we are all still HUMAN!! And it would seem to make sense
that certain adjustments for the HUMANS would be appropriate.
Now, I know I am going to get raked across the coals from those that
just do that. I am hoping for some honest intelligent comments.
Thanks for some insight if any is available.

If Tim did that, Doug and Wendy Whiner would be all over social media
kvetching about the disgraceful outgoing call lag time.
BUT, a simple alternative, option, choice would/should satisfy everybody
that owns and uses an iPhone!!

I have had both experiences you describe and agree that a delay would be a good idea. But as you know since Apple hasn’t already implemented it then it’s not needed and no one wants it.

This has happened to me occasionally, but for the convenience of helping
to stop such misdials in this way it would mean a 3 second delay on all
calls which, to me, would be an annoyance most of the time.

Wilf,
Sorry, I only used a "3 second" as a reference number to start the conversation. I am sure that with today's high speed computer
abilities we could consider milliseconds or microseconds as an off set.
As I understand it, the computer is designed by humans
to aid and assist
other human's with everyday skills and abilities with more flexibility.
Why not make it more user friendly for those that would like the
opportunity to not waste other human's time.
As it happened the other
day when I mistakenly tapped my brother-in-law's phone number and then realized the mistake and hung up. He then took the time to text me to
see if I wanted something since his phone had rung and I was not there
when he answered. Yes, I made the mistake!! Yes, it was my fault!!
But with a "something in time delay" of a full second or two he would
not have been disturbed and would not have wasted time doing what he was doing.
And, Yes there is that other part of society that doesn't give a
RAT'S ASS who's time they waste. Because they are #1 in their life!!!
Ok, enough venting!!! Now it is the OTHERs time to waste their
time barking at me for wasting their time reading this dribble!! ;-)
Later,
Les

Try that again in english, you unspeakable foreign person you.
What???s next? I tapped the wrong icon and started the wrong app? I
