Has anyone else's noticed that your contact's photo no longer shows up on incoming calls?
 
Mine still appears. Is this affected by the new update perhaps? I have yet to update.

Yeah it's the update. Why apple why??????! You made such a big deal about the full screen phone calls and stuff at WWDC and now it is a stupid little circle in the top right corner and more circle buttons for accept and decline. And then in the phone app the key pad as a this tiny little circle that let's you call. :mad: You leave all that space open and give us a stupid circle. No face time is just as bad an I'm not happy about the power off either. Apple needs to get rid of all these stupid circles they have just place in iOS and start take advice from their users and asking their users.
 
Yes I noticed. AND I HATE IT

How come you hate it so bad? After all you're just going to do a quick glance to see who it is, and put the phone up to your head and knowing who it is you're not going to be looking at the phone anymore anyway, so what difference does it make? I think the little circle with the photo and it makes the phone backsplash look very clean. I like it!

I haven't updated yet but it always is helpful seeing the full picture of who is calling as I don't have enough time to glance at the small circle to see whose calling or reading the name [as ridiculous as it sounds...it is way easier just seeing persons picture and answering]

I can't picture what you're describing. Can you post a screenshot of what has changed when an incoming calls dials in? I like it when I can see whose calling me.

Well I rarely get phone calls. But when I do I want to be happy with my experience. But my biggest problem is that we are taking steps backwards. We should only move forward.
 
I liked the full screen incoming calls a lot better. I think it was stupid for apple to remove that. It should of been a option in settings to choose which one you want to use instead of removing it.
 
I am not getting my caller ID photos at all, nothing. Is it something I have to set again? The white below is just the Apple logo from my wallpaper and i blocked out the last name for privacy.
