There are a couple-three different scenarios here, believe it or not. Some or all of them may present you with different screens and buttons when they occur.
- Receiving a Call with the Phone in Standby/ Screen Locked
- Receiving a call while using the Phone/ Screen Unlocked
- Receiving a call while on Another Call (Did you know your Phone (likely) has Call Waiting, free of charge?)
Receiving a Call with the Phone in Standby/ Screen Locked

- Conduct your call.
iOS Android Windows Phone - When you’re done, press the End Call button to terminate the call.
