I have phone problems that you may be able to help me with. Currently, I have a used OPO.
1 The touch screen is damaged. Replaced it once already. Can’t afford another phone ATM. I have trouble answering calls. Been an issue before I started job searching in earnest. Missing calls is a nonstarter. The main issue with the default app is that it wants me to slide in the direction where touch doesn’t work. I could rotate but that doesn’t always work. Most people / bots / recordings hang up by then. I haven’t tried other apps. Suggestions are welcome!
2 Voicemail of my service only has 3 slots that expire in 3 days. That is unreasonable to me. Are there apps that pick up after an arbitrary amount of rings, provide an option for me to hear the first x seconds and then give the caller the option to leave a message. The hearing part can be useful because 98% of the calls are unsolicited or creepy.
3 If I can’t afford a smartphone, could an even cheaper dumb phone work? Who does that? I am doubtful because some apps depend on the SIM card or an active cellular connection…
My head and ears hurt very much if I wear anything for more than 30 min or 1 hour and the devices aren’t good in bed. I lay down often because my back hurts.
Still good to have handy to pick up important calls. Any recommendations?
