  • V: Incoming Call
    In the event that the user receives an incoming call while another call is active a smaller portrait of the incoming caller appears. The user may swipe down on the incoming caller’s portrait to reject or they may press on it to hold the current call and answer the second line. In addition the user may merge the calls by simply dragging one portrait together. Once the call is merged the two portraits stick together and a new subset of functions appear on the portraits .

  • VI: Address Book
    Because our brains process images faster than text, The visual address book makes navigating contacts quick and easy. The user can scroll though the alphabet and once a letter is selected the user can scrub left or right on the portraits to find the desired contact. Once the desired contact is found, pressing the portrait will place a call.
