Anil - Jul 01, 2019

This feature somehow could fly under the radar but it's really worth your attention. With iOS 13, you can get away from spammy stuff that has annoyed you for quite a while.

Up to now, users are already able to enjoy the iOS 13 with several dedicated updates, comprising of a Dark Mode throughout the interface, or a more-advanced Photos app. However, there's still something that could be considerate to you - "Silence Unknown Callers" - to help you fight with spammy annoyances.

Ios-13-Robocalls — Robocalls seem like an epidemic.

Put briefly, this feature somehow could fly under the radar, too. However, if you miss it, you will miss the chance to get away from any spammers and robocalls that have annoyed you for quite a while- so it's really worth your attention.

Until the iOS 13 is officially released in the coming months, the useful feature won't be available. However, in case you desire to try it, the company have just dropped a public beta of iOS 13 this week and you actually can experience some advantages of it right now. If your iPhone is already updated with this public beta, here's the way for you to see it: Heading to Settings > Phone > "Call silencing and blocked contacts" right there.

Once you got into this setting, all calls that derived from "unknown numbers" will be automatically shifted to voicemail. Now there will be no longer any deal with robocalls or telemarketers.

The new feature is cool in some sort. While its work is considered as a little more than simple screening blocks, Apple says it uses "Siri intelligence" to get through with numbers not only in saved Contacts list but also in your Messages and Mail. From that, one who communicated with you once over messages or emails is more likely able to call you even when you haven't yet to save their number in your iPhone.

Agree to disagree, the feature may also come with unpredictable issues in some cases. First, if spammers disguise their phone numbers, there's no way for the feature to be all-around prevention. Second, if your acquaintances make their calls from a strange number on the alarm, you're likely to miss those or in need of checking your voicemail more frequently.
