Is there a way to choose how I want to answer calls? This swiping thing is not working for me. By the time I swipe correctly, the caller has hung u[! If there is, this phone doesn't make it easy to find it!

I have not found any other way to answer it. The Treasure is a lot easier to swipe & answer then the Sunset. Did you try to swipe up instead of across the screen? Works for DH.
I'm still using my Sunset right now. If I leave the contacts screen as the home screen when I'm at home when a call comes in I can click on answer call. You can do the same thing with the Treasure.
When you swipe the screen leave your finger on the screen the whole time you are swiping across the screen. I was lifting my finger up as I was swiping & it would not work.

I had a phone that you had to swipe to answer. Ya, that didn't last long - I got rid of it.

When I first got my tracfone LG-Ll41C I had this same problem.
But after awhile I came across the answer for that phone.
On the chance that this may also work for the Treasure, here goes:
1. Click on 'settings' app.
2.Under the heading 'wireless networks' , touch the Call option (it has a green/white phone symbol next to it)
3.This takes you to a page of options. Under the heading 'incoming call',
check the box next to "home button answers call'.
If you are able to do these steps on the Treasure, then you will be able to answer any call with your home button!
I hope it work for you.

There are apps in the Google play store that will make it easier for you to answer your phone.

I will try that. Thanks. Shame there aren't options for answerfing since other than that, I'm liking the phone.

No, that option isnt't on the Treasure, unfortunately.

Thx for the info but this does not work on the Treasure. There is no Home Button Answers Call listed under Incoming Calls.

DH tried Easy Answer. He said it does not work. It says it has not been tested on Android 4.1 or higher.
