why was the auto answer time changed in version 15.5

Why was the auto answer time changed from a minimum of 0 seconds to 3 seconds in the latest update. This feature was the main reason I purchased the 13 pro max. It is essential to my work. It doesn't seem to make a lot of sense that Apple would change that. There are many people who use this feature set to 0 seconds and you just took that away. Please change that back to give the user the option of 0 seconds. Seems like a very easy fix and can't imagine there was a good reason for taking something away that you offered before. Thank you

Didn't you post this once before? This is a user-to-user technical support site operated by Apple. No one here can answer your question. Either call AppleCare and ask for Customer Service or go here -> Feedback - iPhone - Apple

A question for Apple, and we are all users here......just like you.....who cannot answer for decisions made by Apple.

Try Feedback - iPhone - Apple

Apple will acknowledge receipt of your feedback, but they will not reply any further than that.

Yes, I agree, very bad decision. I have contacted their support line about this for whatever good that does. If you have not already done that I recommend you do. The more people who let them know it is an issue that affects our livelihoods then maybe they will change it back. Seems like a very easy fix. The support number is 800-275-2273.

I have the same problem. I also spent the money on the iPhone specifically for the auto answer because my livelihood depends on answering the call first. I don't know who those other people are that posted but it's too bad that you would just assume they work for the same place. We're just trying to survive and looking for a solution to get past Apple's really bad decision for that change.
