On the bottom of the screen, there should be an answer buttonwhich you can use a 1 finger double tap. The 2 finger tap is justanother way to answer calls but you don't have to do it that way.

Unfortunately, Raul, I am one of those with problems with thetwo-fingerdouble-tap. Answering my phone on the go often results in amissed callbecause I can't make it work fast enough. One thing I did pick upon in myreading is making sure your fingers are separated so that thescreen

registers that there are two fingers.

That brings up another thought. Is it possible to answer and hangup callswith the power or home button? This really has been difficult forme.

Your fingers must be shaped oddly, <smile>. Seriously I've seenothers havetrouble with a 2-finger double-tap and if I could see how they doit perhapsI could offer a suggestion as to how they could adjust things. Myonlysuggestion if you want to improve this gesture would be to do itover and

over in the practice area.

This is accurate, unless you are answering call-waiting.

Hi,

From what I found (at least with my 4S), you cannot do twofingerdouble tap to start a call (unless others have other things tosay).For ending a call, you can double tap with two fingers anywhereon

the screen.

Cheers,

Can you double tap the screen with two fingers to start a call?

Is there a certain point on the screen where you should tap?

Hi,

At least for first question, you can make a call in at leastthree ways:

.Use keypad: dial thephonenumber using the phone keypad (from phone app, tap the keypadbuttonto bring it). After entering the phone number, press the callbutton

(bottom center between "add to contacts" and "delete" keys).

.From contacts list: Tapthecontact you wish to call, then tap the phone number, and itshould

start dialing.

.Using Siri: Bring Siri(hold

down the home key) and say, "call num" where "num" is the phone
number. Speak clearly. Or, if the phone number is in the address

book, say, "call someone" where "someone" is the name of thecontact.


Once you start a call using any of these methods, double tap the
screen with two fingers to end a call.

Note that Siri works only on iPhone 4S. A similar method existsfor

iPhone 3GS and 4.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi,

I am wondering first how to answer and end calls using my phone?

I forget how to do this easily with my iPhone 4 s?

Then I am also wondering using the native facebook for iPhoneapp if

there is a way to have location turned on so you can check in to

places without the app showing your location when you postanything.
