Receiving Calls
If you receive an incoming call when the device is in sleep mode or the screen is locked,

screen is active, the incoming call is displayed as a floating notification, that is, in a
minimized window that floats at the top of whatever screen is open. When such a
notification arrives, you can choose to answer the call and open the phone application
screen, or you can reject the call and stay on the current screen.
