How to reject an incoming phone call on iOS 7?

I just noticed there's no option to reject an incoming call on iOS7. I just installed iOS7 on my iPhone 5 and now wondering where's this feature ? 😟

iPhone 5, iOS 7

Heeey All,


I guess they forgot to add the call decline option to lock screen (most probably it will be by swiping to the opposite side)

a work around by clicking message then Custom then cancel ( you don't have to actually send th MSG ) , still the missed call will be on your lock screen and no reminders


I hope U find dat helpful till they work on it

Or, you could just double tap the power button.


I don't know what "dat" is or how it could be helpful in this situation.


Best of luck.

I'm pretty sure this has always been the case, and it hasn't changed woth iOS7. When in 'Locked' or 'Sleep' mode, call options have never appeared with an incoming call - you could only 'Slide to answer', or hit the power button once or twice to silence or reject a call. Some have said you can swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reject a call, but I've never got that to work, and now, of course, that would open Control Centre. I've never understood the reason for this, though, and agree, it's something which could be improved on.
