Thats what the ones with physical buttons do have.

Not viable with a touch screen tho.

SO DONT HAVE JUST A TOUCH SCREEEN

NOT A VIABLE WAY TO DO A SMARTPHONE.

Makes more sense to swipe an icon on the touch screen.

No, It makes no more sense than tapping a button, or an icon, or shaking
the thing volently and throwing it against the wall

All the mobile interfaces are obscure. I bought a (very non-smart) phone
in 2003 and had to go back into the shop to ask how to turn it on. You
press *and hold* the red "hang up" button. Who would think of that?
(There was a 1/0 power symbol on the button but it was *very* tiny.)

There is no such thing as an 'intuitive' user interface to anything.

Yes there is with catching something coming towards you.

Its all convention.

Most, but not all.

But smart phones are probably te worst piece of tech to surface yet

Even sillier than you usually manage and thats saying something.
