I'm starting to use my phone for more and more things and lately I've been getting annoyed when I'm interrupted as a full screen notification for an incoming call pops up. It seems like all you would need it are banner notifications like you get for everything else. Am I alone in this?

Is it just me, or would banner notifications be better for incoming calls?

Agree. I almost never use my phone for the phone and I decline almost all calls.

Should at least be an option.

I don't mind. Usually when I get a call it's important. Never crossed my mind to change the full screen notification style.

Well have you tried setting it to banners in Notifications>Phone? I've never tried it

Tried, still getting the usual fullscreen stuff.
Ah ok. What other phone notifications are there that that actually controls, out of interest? Visual voicemail? (Not supported on my network so don't know myself)

I have no idea if any of the Notifications > phone options work, don't seem to :confused:
