How to Disable Compact Calls on iPhone iOS 15

In iOS 15, Apple still brings in the persistent call banners instead of full-screen notifications. This is to say, whenever your iPhone is unlocked, regulars calls, FaceTime, and third-party VoIP incoming calls will appear in a compact, small space at the top of your screen.

This is a new UI compact call feature and it’s turned On by default. However, if you don’t find this feature attractive and preferred the old big contact picture in incoming calls, below is how to enable it in iOS 15.

  1. Thank you for this fix. Part of the reason I switched from Android to Iphone was to get AWAY from this feature. It’s an accident waiting to happen when you are driving and can’t find the tiny answer screen. I have almost ran into the back of people/ran off the road trying to answer the phone while driving. Thankfully Apple will let you turn this off.
