Spam calls are annoying, not only for the listener but also for the person making the call.
Both of them do not want to be a part of the call, but then there’s fate.
However, it appears iPhone users will not be getting any spam calls thanks to an upcoming update. The latest iOS 13 will make it possible for the user to send all calls from the wrong numbers straight to voicemail.
Yes, the genius minds at Apple’s Headquarters in California are working to develop a solution that will make it possible to avoid all calls from unknown numbers, the numbers not in the address book of the phone and those with hidden or private numbers.
An Apple spokesperson recently spoke to Sunrise, explaining the detailed operational structure and working of the upcoming software feature.
“If you have an iPhone and you’ve upgraded to iOS 13, the latest version of their operating system, there’s something called ‘silence unwanted calls,’ which you can easily set up yourself,” he said.
“Scroll down to ‘Phone’ and switch on ‘Silence Unknown Callers.’ What that does is any number that your phone has no experience with – one that’s not in your contact list or a private number – it goes straight to voicemail.”
The new features which are going to be a part of the next iOS update can do far more than just automatically rejecting spam calls.
Another useful thing which will be a part of this update is the ‘dark mode’ feature. It will adjust the screen light emission to make using the phone at night easier.
iOS 13 is also expected to increase the security and privacy of the user, by introducing Wi-Fi access control.
Apple also announced that the displays for its latest iPhones are “designed, tested and manufactured for Apple quality and performance standards,” so in case of a problem, they must be taken to ‘certified technicians.’
“Replacements not performed by Apple, authorized service providers, or certified technicians might not follow proper safety and repair procedures and could result in improper function or issues with display quality or safety,” the tech giant wrote on its website.
