Why hasn't anyone copied the sound switcher from iPhone and OnePlus yet?

Ask any iPhone or OnePlus owner what their phone has that others don't? Perhaps he will answer that it is a sound switch on the side edge. It allows you to turn on silent with one swipe without opening the notification shade - it's really convenient.





But why haven't other companies tried the same switch on their smartphones? It turns out it's not that easy. But I think manufacturers should try, even if the disadvantages outweigh the pros.





That's why nobody else has copied ...

There is one real reason why manufacturers don't make a mute switch in their phones: it takes more effort to develop than companies are willing to put in. For example, Android does not have a standard API for such switches, and therefore the company will have to develop both the switch itself and the software for it. And even if it's not that hard, it will take a lot of precious time, which the brand is better off spending on something else.
