Carol gets much more spam phone calls on her phone than I do. While I get some, I mostly get weird text messages that I block and/or Delete and Report as Spam.
There are some settings on your iPhone that may be able to help with the spam calls. They are cleverly hidden away in Settings, Apps, Phone. Trust me, it’s there, it’s just hard to find. There are 3 sections in particular, Caller Identification, Screen or Silence Unknown Numbers, and Filter Unknown and Spam Calls. There are some more things after that, as well, but these are three good ones to look at. These work on the newer iphones running IOS 26. One option is when a call comes in from an unknown caller the caller will be prompted to provide their name and reason for the call. Then the phone will ring through and you can decide whether to answer. As per usual, I am including a link HERE, that you should read FIRST, before doing what I do and jumping in blind. When I checked my phone, the first setting was already done, but you should check all these settings and decide if you want to turn them on and remember how to turn them off in case you don’t like some of them.
