I thought this was a limitation on the carrier you used, rather than the brand of phone? While I’ve not used any Samsung phones (well, none that ran Android), I’ve gone through various carriers and some of them have supported VVM in the Google Phone app, and others don’t seem to.
Also it is hilariously difficult to decline a call on Google dialer.
It’s as simple as swiping down on the screen. I agree it’s a little under-sensitive if you try to swipe down from the circle with the icon at the bottom. But you can swipe down from anywhere on the screen and it will decline the call.
I use for another feature somehow missing “confirm call”
Gives you chance to double check the name.
One feature I miss from my Samsung was “flip to silence ringer”. Was great for letting spams/unknown ring all the way to voicemail without listening to the ring or making it obvious I declined the call.
My pixel puts the whole damn phone to silent mode.
Edit: I just searched about it and wow. Didn’t know we have alternative to SimpleTools available already. I have been using the old Simple Notes despite the news of its acquisition out of laziness and not it’s the time to switch. Thanks.
Funny, my first thought was that this would be much easier to answer by accident! Since it only requires a tap and not a swipe, it seems to me like a pocket answer or rejection would be a lot more likely to happen without the phone owner even knowing.

And like all android updates, it’s guaranteed to be worse than it was.
Everything’s getting shittier.
Great, they’re gonna serve ads while we take a fucking phone call next

Luckily Fossify Phone exists.
I use this because it has a feature that is shamefully absent from every other dialer: sending unknown callers directly to voicemail.

Its not though. Swipe down and nothing happens.

I dunno what you’re talking about. Stock dialer has it for me.
Bad jokes aside, is this really not a standard feature? I would’ve thought this would’ve been more common.
That’s an iPhone, my guy.

What is it?

Out of the loop, what acquisition?
It was acquired by an adware company sadly.
What a bummer. Thanks for the link.
I think that is more intuitive and you can’t answer by accident
