Why in the world is there no call reject button when the screen is off?

This is one thing I hate about the iPhone. If you receive a call while the screen is off why is there no call reject button?

You can't slide up somehow?
Because there are still the 'react with textmessage' things. So you should be able to invoke them. So i think it should be possible to reject a call and then you can choose to sent a message.

If you hit the sleep/wake button twice it rejects the call.
When you receive a call the screen lights up with a slide to answer only, slide to reject would also be nice. :rolleyes:

Maybe Apple will figure it out within the next 10 years.

Hitting the sleep/wake button doesn't end the call. It only silences the ringer. Need decline/answer option.

If you cut the call early, they will know. Silencing it with the power button let's it ring on their end and they have no clue. I think pushing the power button twice ends the call immediately.

Well the person trying to call you doesn't know, so what difference does it make?

Or are we just trying to find something new to completely ***** about?
