Would it be possible to please make notifications last a whole minute? I really want to enjoy my notifications during a movie.
Also, I really love how I can’t quickly just close the notifications. Could you guys please just lock up my phone or something?
Uh, I know! I know one! When the low battery notification comes on, switch the phone to full brightness and turn on the flashlight! And like be sure to cover the entire useful window for a minute or two so the user can be made aware of the importance!
And please do interrupt whatever I’m doing, whenever a guy just wants to call my phone number. That makes it easier for me to just call other people to do the same. And when a call comes in, those are the 3 things I want to do, either Answer, screen or hang-up. I sure wouldn’t want to totally ignore a phonecall regardless of who it was. Specially not during a movie or while having sex. Please call others so they can call me.
When I’m driving, don’t use the GPS to do useful things like call blocking! Nah. That data is important, send it to Coke so they know where to sell me more! Please do let me know about Coke or a call about the candidates while I’m about to exit the freeway. Block the entire screen and minimize my GPS. Truly appreciated!
Thanks Android!
You didn’t mention audio.
I particularly love the feature where you can only listen to music by turning off “Do Not Disturb”, because that way my morning walk is guaranteed to be interrupted by some random caller wanting to tell me that Bill Gates personally wants to give me money, rather than listening to the music I had queued up as I walked out the front door.
Oh, also, the predictive keyboard is brilliant, it forgets common words after about a week, so then you are forced to spend extra time typing the same thing again and again, which is great for finger dexterity training. Speaking of which, I absolutely love the autocorrect which changes words completely out of context, even if you spelled the word correctly, not to mention that adding an “s” to a long word to get a plural requires that you type the entire word.
What phone are you using which does this?
It’s a Nokia X20, running stock Android, currently 14, but it’s been that way on Android for as long as I remember.
That’s gotta be a Nokia thing. I’ve been listening to music with do not disturb on when sleeping for years, never been an issue on samsung, oneplus, huawei, or pixel phones I’ve had.
That’s pretty stupid of a feature. Never knew that was a thing since I think Samsung implements their Do Not Disturb functionality differently.
Great points! I love it!
