Wish Apple would just give to option to BLOCK unknown callers, not just silent them. Still notifies you. That’s the only thing I miss about a Samsung. But I’ve been Apple since iPhone 6. Still wish they would change it.

They don’t do that incase a number phones in an emergency like the hospital or an important call you wouldn’t get often

Then they can include both functions. One option to block unknowns. A second option to silence unknowns. Everyone’s happy.

Blocking unknowns you can make a automation for that or just make a focus and block unknowns meaning only contacts will call you which isn’t recommended you’ll never know what happens

Thank you for your suggestions and honesty that nothing really works to block spam calls or texts. I watched this because I keep getting texts saying accounts I have are suspended or something trying to provoke me to be “Oh no!” and go see what is going on. Most of these I don’t have an account. I just don’t open them. I just delete them. I guess that’s what I’ll continue doing.

Thank you so much, this really helped me silence my mom's spam call problem. She has dementia and was getting upwards of 8-10 calls a day, but once I got her on the do not call list they mostly stopped and then I clicked on silence the calls that weren't in her contacts too. I'm debating putting an app on her phone that would help with this as well, but for now I just wanted to say thanks.

How to block spam text messages? I sometimes gets one where they make it sound like they are from a known post company and wants me to click a link to pay money in order to receive a package, but it's spam or virus so I never click. Plus I did not await any package and had not ordered anything. Just dont see a way to block them from texting me. I dont want to set it to block numbers that are not in my contacts, I find that to agressive.

It's very worth blocking spam callers. It can take a couple of months, but they do eventually stop calling you. If they're not getting anywhere with you, they won't just go on and on coming up with new phone numbers. I used to get spam calls every single day, multiple times a day. Now it's pretty much zero spam calls.

Should we use more than one call blocker...will this cause any problems with blocking calls that might be valid?
@Jstinfps Жыл бұрын
Yes using more than one call blocker can cause issues. One call blocker can block certain numbers while the other doesn’t. Each call block app uses different sources for finding spam call/text numbers. I have found that the best call block apps use crowdsourcing. Meaning they rely on their users to report known spam numbers which I have found to be a lot more accurate.

I wish that, during this election season, I could use wild cards to eliminate unwanted (political) calls. For instance from candidate "A" all the calls are sent with the same area code and the first 3 digits of the phone number. So if there was a button to block and report (area code) 123-**** wouldn't it eliminate most robo calls? Thanks

Thank you for explaining this, it really helped. QUESTION… How can I block, or get rid of, the truckload of political calls for donations. I DID put myself on a list, but have asked to be removed and it didn’t work. So now I just click “delete and report as junk”. Any ideas? Thank you. Love your videos but being 71 I have to stop and back up sometimes as cannot follow the clicks that fast. LOL!!

In addition AT&T does NOTHING when you report junk. Their advice was to upgrade to their paid blocking service or “change the number you’ve had for YEARS”!!! Thanks for your loyalty AT&T! 😡 in addition AT&T does not work well with TrueCaller or RoboKiller, you will lose important messages and there is no way you can get them back.
