The recent dock sharing post surprised me because of how many people had the Phone app in the dock.
I personally open it maybe once a month if I have to call a number I don’t have in my phone and if I call anyone I know it’s just through the Messages app since it’s all right there on the contact. Because of this I haven’t had the phone app on my dock for years.
Am I generally alone in this or were non Phone app users just not very present in that thread?
And don’t come at me with the “check ur emails”
Phone is one of the last reach for me. Only for those at the fringe of smartphones and still thinking a phone as a voice calling device.
Yea i don’t have the phone app. Spotlight can allow me to dial directly. Any calls are in the notifications. Hardly need it. Others will catch up your just ahead of the curb.
Yes, almost daily. It’s phonebook and messages I barely use. They are still in my dock though.
Yes because when I want to make a call it’s usually for a really important reason that I might want to be able to do quickly.
The Phone app to me is like a fire extinguisher: I don’t use it every day but when I do, it’s usually an emergency and I wanna make sure it’s where I left it.
Making calls through the Messages app is like sending messages through the Telephone app
I use the phone often, maybe daily, but it’s. It in my dock. I have several apps that supersede the phone
It’s down there but I don’t use it often, but if I need to make a call, it’s a lot faster than trying to find it in a folder or searching for it.
It’s called a phone
I don’t use it for that purpose often, but that’s still primarily what I see it as.
FaceTime, messages, phone, and contacts on my dock.
After all, it is a phone. Lol.
Dang that’s some feature overlap there you’re the first I’ve seen to have contacts as well.
Always.
iPhone 7 is slow enough you can’t search a contact with spotlight and it instantly comes up.
even if i don’t use it all the time, it just feels like sacrilege to move it. i’ve always had phone and text next to each other and camera on the right. and usually a browser in between.
taking the phone icon out just feels super weird.
All this comment section really does is show username age. “Looking to dial a number is exhausting that’s why it’s always docked.” Bro swipe down search phone.
