RE: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Carolyn Arnold]

It will be in Recents and/or also in Voice Mail, if they left one - already 
been there, done that. 

Best regards,

So if someone calls and you have silence calls turned on, where do you find the 
phone number Of who called? Will it be in the recent calls list or missed calls 
or what will show up if anything?

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Arlene]

We not only get some of those scam likely calls on our iphones, but we also get 
these calls on our button phones, not our landline. Since we never answer those 
calls we don't get as many as we use too. Is there any way to change it or stop 
the calls?

I like the way this is implemented on Android somewhat better though and 
for that reason I haven’t implemented it on my Iphone although I’d like to.

On Android, it doesn’t block all unknown callers but blocks those that 
might have spam characteristics. I had a lot of calls in my recents on that 
phone, a few of which were spam. It identified them all correctly. 

But I do get some legitimate calls from people I haven’t bothered to add to 
my contacts because they don’t call much, usually related to some event I’m 
part of or whatever, and they’re definitely not spam. So I feel like this is 
too global. Another example of calls I get are from state agencies which mask 
their numbers using other numbers. No idea why, it’s totally supid, and I can 
recognize them even if they’ve never used that number before, but it makes it 
impossible to enter them in your contacts because they never call from the real 
number. 

On my Android phone, it was able to determine that these weren’t spam, but 
if they were, I could make a rule for that and they’d probably all be. 

So I hope that Apple will get more sophisticated about this over time 
because I like the concept.

I know some have complained loudly and persistently about iOS13, but if it 
added nothing but the silence unknown callers, it is completely worth it to me.

 

I was checking my recent calls  list for a completely unrelated issue and 
there was a number I did not recognize from another State.  It happened at a 
time I was using Voice Dream Reader and I had no idea a call had happened.

They didn’t leave a voice mail, so as I do with such things, I blocked the 
number.

 

But, I did not get interrupted, which is fabulous in my book.

I have received an increasing number of robo calls in the last 6 months, so 
this is worth any other issues to me.

 

Just my 2¢ worth.

 

Richard

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Richard Turner]

Here is an example of how it was useful last night.
I woke up at 5AM, which is pretty standard for me.
I checked my phone for email, but noticed there was a notification from the 
phone app.
I checked, and there was no VoiceMail, but there was a recent call from an 
unknown caller at 11:38 PM last night.
It is a function that you can turn on or off fairly easily.
So, when you are not expecting a delivery, you could turn it on.
That is of course up to you.


Richard

Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2.

I think this will really work for me. I hate getting these telemarketer calls, 
especially in the early morning hours on both my phone and watch and hope it

RE: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

Open Settings.
Then, down the list a ways is Phone, open that.
There is a section with the heading: Silence Unknown Callers.
Flick right once where you can toggle it on or off.

I was checking my recent calls  list for a completely unrelated issue and there

They didn’t leave a voice mail, so as I do with such things, I blocked the

But, I did not get interrupted, which is fabulous in my book.
I have received an increasing number of robo calls in the last 6 months, so

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Shirley Baker]

How do you turn it on if that is an option? I would think if you are expecting 
a ride and concerned that they might call you, you could disable it for that 
time.

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Feliciano Godoy]

Hi
It’s supposed to use some form of intelligence to detect calls.  If interested, 
but hesitant for such calls.  Why not give it a shot and if it doesn’t work for 
you, you can disable it? If you’re really considering it...

If you put your para transit phone number into your contacts, that call will go

probably will screen it out as a Robo.

I like the way this is implemented on Android somewhat better though and for 
that reason I haven’t implemented it on my Iphone although I’d like to.
On Android, it doesn’t block all unknown callers but blocks those that might 
have spam characteristics. I had a lot of calls in my recents on that phone, a 
few of which were spam. It identified them all correctly.
But I do get some legitimate calls from people I haven’t bothered to add to my 
contacts because they don’t call much, usually related to some event I’m part 
of or whatever, and they’re definitely not spam. So I feel like this is too 
global. Another example of calls I get are from state agencies which mask their 
numbers using other numbers. No idea why, it’s totally supid, and I can 
recognize them even if they’ve never used that number before, but it makes it 
impossible to enter them in your contacts because they never call from the real 
number.
On my Android phone, it was able to determine that these weren’t spam, but if 
they were, I could make a rule for that and they’d probably all be.
So I hope that Apple will get more sophisticated about this over time because I 
like the concept.

It would be more of a problem if the paratransit people used a

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

The number should still show up in your call history, or couldn’t you get it 
from your para transit? Do they call from a bunch of different numbers? That 
would be a problem.

It goes to Voice Mail. You call them back.

If you enable this, doesn’t it also mean that anyone ringing through an office

they also appear as unknown caller.

Subject: RE: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

I like the way this is implemented on Android somewhat better though and for 
that reason I haven’t implemented it on my Iphone although I’d like to.
On Android, it doesn’t block all unknown callers but blocks those that might 
have spam characteristics. I had a lot of calls in my recents on that phone, a 
few of which were spam. It identified them all correctly.
But I do get some legitimate calls from people I haven’t bothered to add to my 
contacts because they don’t call much, usually related to some event I’m part 
of or whatever, and they’re definitely not spam. So I feel like this is too 
global. Another example of calls I get are from state agencies which mask their 
numbers using other numbers. No idea why, it’s totally supid, and I can 
recognize them even if they’ve never used that number before, but it makes it 
impossible to enter them in your contacts because they never call from the real 
number.
On my Android phone, it was able to determine that these weren’t spam, but if 
they were, I could make a rule for that and they’d probably all be.
So I hope that Apple will get more sophisticated about this over time because I 
like the concept.

I know some have complained loudly and persistently about iOS13, but if it 
added nothing but the silence unknown callers, it is completely worth it to me.

I was checking my recent calls  list for a completely unrelated issue and there 
was a number I did not recognize from another State.  It happened at a time I 
was using Voice Dream Reader and I had no idea a call had happened.
They didn’t leave a voice mail, so as I do with such things, I blocked the 
number.

But, I did not get interrupted, which is fabulous in my book.
I have received an increasing number of robo calls in the last 6 months, so 
this is worth any other issues to me.

Just my 2¢ worth.

I seldom get scam callers on my iPhone.  Lucky me, so for now, I will screen

  Have you given that kind of detail to apple Accessibility?

   

  I have wanted various kinds of rule settings for a long time.  I’d especially 
like to create a rule for Emails like you can in Outlook.

  I know now I can mute threads kind of, but that isn’t quite the same.

  If Apple could do something like what you are describing, that would be 
better for sure.

   

  But again, they can leave messages and you can tell from the phone app that 
you have received a new call.  Unless someone turns off badges for the phone 
app.

My paratransit provider makes a robocall to let you know that the driver has 
arrived.  This is often flagged as unknown caller.  If that call doesn't

Probably so, since it cannot know that this one unknown caller is important 
and you can't know which numbers to add to your contacts in advance.

That is why it is an option.

In your case, and others, probably not a good thing.

In my case, it is fantastic.

Since they can leave a message I figure I will find out when I touch the 
phone icon and it says there are 1, 2, or whatever new items.

I trust everyone is able to make their own choices and will make the one 
best for them.

If you enable this, doesn’t it also mean that anyone ringing through an

I was checking my recent calls  list for a completely unrelated issue and 
there was a number I did not recognize from another State.  It happened at

They didn’t leave a voice mail, so as I do with such things, I blocked the

Hi,

I think this is a pretty dangerous idea honestly. What if you have
people relying on you (older parents, children etc) and they lose
their phone or need to make a reverse call because of some sort of
emergency?

I like the way this is implemented on Android somewhat better though and for 
that reason I haven’t implemented it on my Iphone although I’d like to.

On Android, it doesn’t block all unknown callers but blocks those that might 
have spam characteristics. I had a lot of calls in my recents on that phone, a 
few of which were spam. It identified them all correctly. 

But I do get some legitimate calls from people I haven’t bothered to add to my 
contacts because they don’t call much, usually related to some event I’m part 
of or whatever, and they’re definitely not spam. So I feel like this is too 
global. Another example of calls I get are from state agencies which mask their 
numbers using other numbers. No idea why, it’s totally supid, and I can 
recognize them even if they’ve never used that number before, but it makes it 
impossible to enter them in your contacts because they never call from the real 
number. 

On my Android phone, it was able to determine that these weren’t spam, but if 
they were, I could make a rule for that and they’d probably all be. 

So I hope that Apple will get more sophisticated about this over time because I 
like the concept.

RE: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Deb Cook Lewis]

I like the way this is implemented on Android somewhat better though and for 
that reason I haven’t implemented it on my Iphone although I’d like to.

On Android, it doesn’t block all unknown callers but blocks those that might 
have spam characteristics. I had a lot of calls in my recents on that phone, a 
few of which were spam. It identified them all correctly. 

But I do get some legitimate calls from people I haven’t bothered to add to my 
contacts because they don’t call much, usually related to some event I’m part 
of or whatever, and they’re definitely not spam. So I feel like this is too 
global. Another example of calls I get are from state agencies which mask their 
numbers using other numbers. No idea why, it’s totally supid, and I can 
recognize them even if they’ve never used that number before, but it makes it 
impossible to enter them in your contacts because they never call from the real 
number. 

On my Android phone, it was able to determine that these weren’t spam, but if 
they were, I could make a rule for that and they’d probably all be. 

So I hope that Apple will get more sophisticated about this over time because I 
like the concept.

I know some have complained loudly and persistently about iOS13, but if it 
added nothing but the silence unknown callers, it is completely worth it to me.

 

I was checking my recent calls  list for a completely unrelated issue and there 
was a number I did not recognize from another State.  It happened at a time I 
was using Voice Dream Reader and I had no idea a call had happened.

They didn’t leave a voice mail, so as I do with such things, I blocked the 
number.

 

But, I did not get interrupted, which is fabulous in my book.

I have received an increasing number of robo calls in the last 6 months, so 
this is worth any other issues to me.

 

Just my 2¢ worth.

RE: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[Richard Turner]

Probably so, since it cannot know that this one unknown caller is important and 
you can't know which numbers to add to your contacts in advance.

That is why it is an option.

In your case, and others, probably not a good thing.

In my case, it is fantastic.

Since they can leave a message I figure I will find out when I touch the phone 
icon and it says there are 1, 2, or whatever new items.

I trust everyone is able to make their own choices and will make the one best 
for them.

then, they will leave a voicemail.
Half the people don’t answer their phone anyway if they don’t know the number 
that’s calling them.

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

[James English]

Hi,

I think this is a pretty dangerous idea honestly. What if you have
people relying on you (older parents, children etc) and they lose
their phone or need to make a reverse call because of some sort of
emergency?

The following 

Re: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

['Harry Bell' via VIPhone]

If you enable this, doesn’t it also mean that anyone ringing through an office 
switchboard will also be rejected? When clinics or government agencies ring me, 
they also appear as unknown caller.

Subject: Silence Unknown Callers is great!

I know some have complained loudly and persistently about iOS13, but if it 
added nothing but the silence unknown callers, it is completely worth it to me.

 

I was checking my recent calls  list for a completely unrelated issue and there 
was a number I did not recognize from another State.  It happened at a time I 
was using Voice Dream Reader and I had no idea a call had happened.

They didn’t leave a voice mail, so as I do with such things, I blocked the 
number.

 

But, I did not get interrupted, which is fabulous in my book.

I have received an increasing number of robo calls in the last 6 months, so 
this is worth any other issues to me.

 

Just my 2¢ worth.

 

Richard
