REMIND ME LATER FEATURE

Hi,


I would the remind me later feature to function without rejecting a call.


How can i do that ?


i mean i understand rejecting a call to reply with message, but i dont understand rejecting a call to call back later.


We are in middleeast , and rejecting a call is not a good gesture.


Pls help if any knows a way to use the remind me later feature without rejecting the call.


Same in ios 6 & ios 7 😟



thanks!

Dear Wjosten,


I understand ur point. Please consider the below scenario so u can get a clearer picture of my requirement.



You are in a cinema, your phone rings, u do not want to answer but surely u would like to return the call once ur done from the movie.


Now if u reject the call, the caller might repeat the call twice or thrice, wondering the reason for rejecting the call.


But if u just ignore the call( not answering, not rejecting), then the caller will assume that whenever you will see the missed call , you will return the call. Thus, you will not get the 2 or 3 repeated annoying calls if u had rejected them.



I am sure you understand my point and might have even been through this in real life.


I sometimes wish if the people here weren't so uptight so I wouldn't have to consider this request.

Dude,


What if the call was from a land line and you were having dinner, and its an important call.

I think u got the clear picture, but u just wont admit that i am right.


Other simpler feature, would be to ignore the call. Then when viewing the call, they should be 2 options, DELETE or MORE, and when you select MORE, they should be a remind me later option. That would be cool , i think.



Where i live , its allowed to put phones on silent instead of switching them off.
