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?
Do I use it often? No.
But it lives first in the dock and always will. If I need to dial something quick I don’t want to be swiping through pages of apps to find it.
this is the way!
Before today it never occurred to me, but now Phone is out of my dock and on my first page of Homescreen. So any time I want to open Phone I just swipe up to get to Homescreen and then if necessary swipe up one more time to jump directly to the first page. Same way I’ve always handled Mail, Calendar, and Clock (all of which I open way more frequently than Phone).
This is why spotlight search is your best friend.
