The feature is texting replies during a call that are read out to the caller.

Thank you. I hate these shitty clickbait articles.

Oh that's right, I always forget my phone can also make phone calls.

[–] crawley@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Worst feature, honestly

[–] Nath@aussie.zone 5 points 11 months ago

I can picture a future where people don't bother with that. Similar to how we slowly abandoned landlines to go 100% mobile, I can imagine people going to data-only plans.

I'm about to get a phone for my kid starting high school next year, and frankly, I can see already see a case for just getting him a data plan.

Thanks. I gave up after having to turn off all those cookie categories.

Couldn't you already do this when screening a call?

[–] crawley@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Not exactly (I don't think). You could choose pre-written responses, but only after the initial spiel about the screening and eventually you'd have to either hang up or answer the call. This is more like you can just pick up the call and text whatever.
