Apple presents many changes when releasing iOS 26. The company not only changes the design of the system interface, but also adds some new features in its built-in applications.
One of the applications that gets an update is the Phone. The application gets a feature called Unknown Caller Filter. This feature gives users control to filter incoming calls.
The features that can be found in this Phone settings offer three protection options with different functions, according to the needs of the user. The three options include 'Never', 'Silent Mode', and 'Ask for Call Reason'.
The 'Never' option will let all foreign numbers ring as usual. Meanwhile, 'Silent Mode' will immediately divert calls from unknown numbers to a voicemail without ringing.
Finally, the 'Ask the Reason for the Call' option will require foreign callers to provide a brief information about their purpose for calling. Data from the caller will then appear on the screen before the user's iPhone starts ringing.
This helps users distinguish between important business calls or just spam interference. Users now get the context they need to decide whether the call is worth responding to or not.
