Yes, and thank you very much.   

 

Part of my reluctance to "swipe" very much is because all I can think of is the amount of germs a screen picks up when repeatedly smeared with our fingers.   

 

Just curious, how often do you clean your phone screen?

I'm not certain how helpful this might be, for your particular phone, but I am one who doesn't love the swiping thing either.  It seems like if you don't get it exactly right it's a PITA.

 

I don't have the burner type phone, as I use a carrier, but I do use Samsung brand and there are settings where you can change the way you pick up or hang up.

 

Mine had that swipe thing on the green phone and I hated it.  I switched it where I can pick up by pressing the top button on the side of the phone and hang up by pressing the bottom button.  Much better for me.   Maybe that's helpful.   Smiley Happy

I hate to tell you but, you have bacteria all over your body all of the time.  You also have bacteria inside your body all of the time.  I clean my phone screen once a day when I clean my glasses unless it gets dirty sooner.

Re: CAN'T ANSWER MY RINGING SAMSUNG (TRACFONE)

Don't feel bad.  I bought a Samsung S21+ Ultra (or something) in February and I could not answer it for the life of me.  I had to google and found that you have to swipe up.

 

I have had a Moto for 100 years so this whole swiping thing was new to me.

 

I follow along on the Samsung S21 community for tips and learn things about the phone.  It's a whole different animal than what I'm used to.
