Can you answer a call with the side power button

I am getting a flip case and was wondering if it is possible to use the side power button to answer a call and end? How do you do this if you can?

You can end the call with the power button but not answer it. You may want to check the market as the may be an app for that, none to my knowledge.

Thanks. I guess you still will need to open the case then. I'll look into it.

Go to Settings / Accessibility / Answering/ending calls. There's an option that says "The power key ends calls."

You need to open the flip cover anyways, but you can assign the Home key to answer a call and the power key to end it, through the accessibility menu in the settings. Have a look at this

looks like you received some excellent suggestions here. i just wanted to suggest the boiny flip case for your application. it's a flip case with a transparent front cover.
