How, exactly, does taking away this function save Samsung money?
I'm confused, are people complaining they silenced their phone by accident or complaining that they can no longer silence their phone by holding the button? If they silenced their phone by accident, they should actually know how the up volume button works, so they can adjust the volume back. If they don't, perhaps these are the types of people who should eschew electronics entirely.
The button action only exists if you download Good Lock's Routines+. It adds the function to the modes and routines. That fact was stated several times in this thread. Download Routines+ (if you already have Good Lock) or download Good Lock and then the Routines+ module. THEN go to modes and routines and set up the routine. That you skipped over that part of the responses makes it seems like you just want to be mad that your feature was removed and now you have to do something else to get it back.
Clearly you don't deal with people in the public space. It's way more common than you realize. There are literally thousands of 70+ year old users who are forced to use this technology.
Are you even a real person? The fact that you are debating this is actually wild.
I am a real person. I am not a Samsung "bootlicker", nor do I work for Samsung in any capacity whatsoever. I am 70+ years old and I have NEVER accidentally muted my phone or have not been able to unmute it if it was muted. I am also perfectly capable of learning new tricks, so removal of a feature would not throw me into a tantrum. I always knew how to mute it when necessary. I know people my age and younger are deliberately technologically illiterate, as a 70+ year old has absolutely no excuse for not knowing how to work tech products, as we were are around when personal computing came into the forefront. Most of us were curious as to how it worked, so we learned. Others remained willfully ignorant and decided they don't need to know how it works, because they either didn't have the comprehension skills, or just didn't want to know.
While in this era one feels forced to use tech products, traditional phone lines still exist, as do pen and paper. So no one is actually forced to use technology - there are plenty of luddites out there. No one is waterboarding 70 year olds into using mobile tech.
I believe you are the one who started the debate and are continuing on with it. Even after *you* said you were exiting the conversation, you are still going on about it.
