You should be concentrating on milking anyway ?

You can switch the finger print scanner off in settings or as said get one with face I'd

Someone once said to me @multi power had a face like a cows arse, would work wonders in the parlour

Yes but some people annoyingly ring during milking

Just cos it rings doesn't mean you have to answer it.

Unless it's the wife, then you have to answer it ?

Put it on silent ?

I hardly take my phone with me when i'm working as I cant be arsed with the distraction, normally only take it if i'm in a tractor for the day.

My phone (and my one before) has both finger print unlock and pin unlock. So when milking just use pin unlock, simples

Pin unlock is also handy when your hands are so grubby that it won't read your fingerprint

Do you not have a back up PIN?

My MotoG - if the pad can't read your fingerprint and you try 3 times... The screen switches to a number pad for you to enter your PIN. Or you press the power button which locks/unlocks the screen - and it goes straight to the number pad and wants your PIN

Gave up with screen/phone locks, more likely to jump on it for not unlocking
Just swipe screen in any direction, simples

let it go to the answer phone & deal with it later
I sometimes wish I could go back to the days when folk had to ring at 12.30 if they wanted to speak to me

Do you have to unlock it to answer an incoming call?

No idea, was looking for a new phone and it mentioned the finger print thing
I've never had a lock on a phone before

I don't have, and won't have answer phone

I've never locked a phone, just looking for a new one

On the point of you guys not answering the phone isn't that a health and safety issue ?
