[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 5 points 1 year ago* (7 children) You get notifications of incoming calls from unknown numbers? Get SpamBlocker on Android. I don't know of anything for iOS. permalink fedilink source hideshow 7 child comments replies: [–] piefood@feddit.online 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) https://f-droid.org/en/packages/me.lucky.silence/ is what I use. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 1 point 1 year ago Nice! I used Blacklist for probably 10 years. Good to see some other apps out there. permalink fedilink source parent [–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) On iOS toggle the “Silence Unknown Callers” option in the phone settings. You will still get the emblem showing that somebody is actively leaving a voicemail that you can tap on. So you can see what they are saying and can still answer the call while they are leaving the message. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 point 1 year ago Samsung packages a service called Hiya that has an auto-block for unknown or hidden callers which I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT AFTER YEARS permalink fedilink source parent [–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago Pretty sure similar functionality is built-in to iOS. I turned it on for my elderly mother's phone, and it completely stopped the scammers that were constantly calling her. I think it's built-in because I don't remember installing anything. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Stern@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago I know that there are Androids that ship natively with stuff like it, and ios stuff too, personally I use KnownCalls, which can just block everyone who isn't a contact. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SuiXi3D@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago I use Truecaller on iOS, but silencing unknown numbers is just a setting. I use Truecaller for the AI assistant and screening calls. permalink fedilink source parent
