Normally, I am very much against popups, because they interrupt other work. A ringing phone is different. It is already an interruption, and one that has to be handled in real-time too. If I don't want to answer, I still want to reject the call. So I need some sort of UI when it rings, and it had better not be cumbersome just because some other app was on top. Of course, a popup is not the only way. I have been thinking that since this is a _phone_, then perhaps the AUX button should pick up the phone whenever it rings, and hang up whenever there is a call in progress. That would get rid of many problems. In particular, one doesn't even have to look at the screen at all. Other popular uses for AUX could still work - when there isn't a call in progress. It is not as if I tend to lock the screen while talking... > I have a plan to show a little xshape gadget on the bottom of the screen > on incoming call or sms.
