The prize for the worst user interface in te workld gose to smart
phones

I missed about 30 calls before I worked out how to answer it

What ever happened to 'lift handset and talk'

Not viable with a mobile phone.

They could have a standard way to answer.

Nope, what works for mobile phones with physical
buttons doesnt with modern touch screen phones.

It depends on whether the phone is 'asleep' or not
? when it 'rings'. You touch something, or swipe
something /to the right/??

But that wont be the same across all mobile phone types.

And you need at least two separate operations too, one to answer
the call, another to send it to voicemail or reject the call.

So have a green handset symbol that you touch to answer, and a red one to
reject the call.

Not viable with a touch screen phone, too easy to touch the wrong
one when getting it out of your pocket when the phone is ringing;
