Public bug reported: I switched to Ubuntu phone from an old Nokia device. One of the things I miss is a possibility to quiet the ringing phone without rejecting the incoming call. Yes, I know I can press the "down" button of a volume adjustment but this way I'm turning off all future notifications. On a meeting, training course, while talking with my boss, or just at any other place as well as one time, short lasting situation I'd like to be able to suddenly shut the "mouth" of the phone, only this one time, not completely till the moment I press the "UP" button of a volume control (what the user definitely forget and the phone will stay silent while the next message comes or while the next important incoming phone call).
All Nokia phones gave us a chance to press a "Silent" button while incoming phone call so that the phone kept on ringing in an one time silent mode. That gave us an opportunity for example to leave the meeting room with a silent ringing phone, without having to reject the incoming connection, answering it as well as making the phone silent for all future messages, calls etc. I find the way it works today a little bit primitive that I have to make the phone silent and then again increase the volume. Just imagine You have to do it 5-10-20 times on a meeting or everyday at work: volume down, volume up; volume down, volume up; volume down, volume up... It does not make fun and I miss my 5140, 5500 or e52 ** Affects: dialer-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573960 Title: A wish: one click silent mode while ringing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dialer-app/+bug/1573960/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
