Silent Messaging Printer Friendly Version
The other night, I wanted to message my girl to remind her of something, but didn't. Reason: I thought she might have forgotten to turn her mobile phone to "sleep" mode, and then wake up through the beep of my incoming message. (This has happened to most of us before, hasn't it?)
Strangely, this has been a problem ever since the days of ordinary text messages, but in 2017, messaging services like Whatsapp or Telegram still haven't tackled it. The solution would be so easy: Add an option to send a message SILENTLY so it won't make a sound (or even vibrate) on the receiving phone, regardless of their settings. Voila!
If you fancy this idea, why not email the messager service of your choice (or even all of them) - if enough users get on their nerves, they should eventually implement it, and if a smaller messenger service implements it (they are probably easier to convince), the larger ones are going to steal the feature anyway.
Reward: Whatsapp, if you do this, would you please do me a favor as well and stop blowing up my solitary emoticons to some obnoxious size - I hate that. Just makes everyone sending a single emoticon look like a douchebag. And if you think this is an essential "feature" of your messaging service (you probably do), at least make it optional for Christ sakes!

Sleep Mode for a Mobile Phone Printer Friendly Version
I have a suggestion.
I was thinking: Can there be a sleep mode feature in a mobile phone?
It can be very annoying when one receives calls while one is sleeping. But placing the mobile phone in silent mode while asleep is not the best solution as you can miss important calls.
There can be a sleep mode. It would be similar to silent mode, but when a call is received from certain numbers more than twice or thrice, the phone will ring. The logic is that when there is something important to convey, a person calls more than once. The owner of the mobile phone will be able to program multiple phone numbers to the sleep mode list.
Reward: I would like to receive the first phone with this feature.

Cell Phone "I'm Driving" Button Printer Friendly Version
On my cell phone, I'd like a button to press while I'm driving (could be part of the car-based charger) that would inform the caller that I'm driving and will call back when possible. Perhaps double-click this button to inform that than "I'm pulling over now/soon to call you" and single-click to inform "I will call later when I get a chance." The responses could be pre-recorded by the phone's owner.
Reward: A free modified phone.
