How to Send Robocalls, Spammers, and Unknown Callers Directly to Voicemail on iOS

By AppleVis, 19 September, 2019

Member of the AppleVis Editorial Team

In this podcast, Thomas Domville introduces us to “silence unknown callers”, a new feature in iOS 13 that helps you block unwanted calls without having to block callers one by one.

With this feature enabled, unknown callers will automatically be sent to voicemail, meaning that robocalls, spam calls, and other unwanted distractions will no longer be able to bother you.

This feature needed to be added several years. Now we may not need to get an app that does but the iPhone does it. Good.

The only drawback I see with this is if you receive calls from a lot of medical facilities and doctors you may want to keep this off.

Yes. I use disability ride sometimes and they call you to let you know your ride is coming. If I set that it will go voice mail and I will lose my ride or my front desk from my comdo place it will send it to voicemail.
