Current phone settings allow hiding icons for features like VoLTE and VoWiFi from the status bar. While this saves precious real estate, it requires users to delve into the settings or constantly glance at the expanded notification area to check their status. This article proposes a new approach: hiding these icons by default but making them visible when the status bar is pulled down, alongside quick settings tiles and notifications.

This offers the best of both worlds – minimizing clutter in the main status bar while ensuring users can quickly and easily determine their VoLTE/VoWiFi settings. Imagine a scenario: you only need to glance at your phone to see if VoLTE is active or need to quickly switch it off. This can be particularly useful for those with limited icon space or prefer a cleaner, streamlined status bar.

This concept could be extended to other features like the Network Monitor, providing greater user customization. This approach offers a user-friendly solution that enhances usability and caters to individual preferences.
