Please don't restrict auto-answer to headphones

[DuncanC]

I think auto-answer is a great feature but I don't see why it's available only when using headphones.

I would find it personally useful but my quadraplegic brother would find it even more so. It's a bit much to expect him to sit around all day with his headphones in but being able to answer his own calls would add greatly to his sense of independence.

Thanks for reading. 🙂

Hi, you could request this feature via your Samsung members app. Just head to the Support section and tap on Ask questions.

Also, there may be a 3rd party app available that could make this possible?

[DuncanC]

Thanks but it's already set. I've been in touch with Samsung about this and they told me it was headphones only and my experience backs up this claim.

I thought I'd tried asking through Ask but got nowhere so I hoped posting here might generate some interest and a favourable outcome

We're just users here, much like yourself. Nobody from Samsung reads this.

Asking the question via the app is a good start. Samsung are always bringing out new features, and if they feel your idea is a worthy addition, then they may add it to a future update release.

@DuncanC: I have gone ahead and passed your suggestion to our Research and Development Team, and will get back to you as soon as I have any news to share. 

[DuncanC]

That's brilliant. Thank you very much! 🫡

Samsung do take on board constructive suggestions so hopefully sometime in the near future something will be introduced. 

I haven't Googled this but I assune there is no app or app developer that can help in the interim 🤔
