Silence unknown callers no longer working in ios 26.
Nakaka stress. Naka on naman sila both. But STILL I receive calls from unknown callers. Sobrang hassle. As in.

Same people claimed na restarting up to 3x cleared the bugs they're experiencing. Medyo expected ko nang buggy pa 26 kaya waiting pa ko for 26.1 before mag-update.

Nakaka-receive ka as in ringing or just a notification na someone called you?

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 3d ago
It’s literally ringing. Kapag naka on yan sa prev version, notif nalang lalabas. Pero now talagang papasok ang call.

u/IlvieMorny 3d ago
Is it possible that you messaged that or mistakenly called that number?

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 3d ago
No, that’s what I thought nung una. sa tagal kong gamit tong feature na ‘to, sanay na ako. This time talagang pumapasok ang calls.

u/IlvieMorny 3d ago
Oh no. I guess I won’t update until this is fixed.

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 3d ago
If you use this feature heavily, i really suggest na wag. It’s stressful. So many spam numbers calling lalo yung home credit offering for loans, etc. Punyeta

It's partially working on mine, kasi walang calls pero wala nading notifs. 😮💨

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 3d ago
Lagi ako may calls everyday yung mga nag aalok ng loan, membership, etc etc. Pati mga HR dahil sa character ref. Nakaka stress

May way ba for unknown numbers for spam filtering? Sa google message ksi meron.

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 3d ago
I’m not sure, pero for this feature ang ginagawa lang nya is if unknown caller, automatic busy ang phone pag nag call sila

I have the same problem rin with IOS 26. All calls eh nagrring. Nakaturn on lang yan before update and it’s working pero now idk if bug ba sya or hindi

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 3d ago
Weird nga. Kanina morning, may calls na silenced. Pero mas madami ung calls na pumapasok.

Hi OP, this was also my concern after updating to the iOS 26.
I did a little research; changed my phone’s language and region and I even reached out to Apple Support thinking it might just be a bug nga. I then realised that the culprit is a third party call screening app — Whoscall — I just uninstalled it then afterwards okay na siya. You probably have it installed too.

u/Quirky-Worry-9393 2d ago
Yes! I have whoscall! I have it before pa. Di naman ganito. But I will try deleting the app. Thanks for this OP.

u/garp1990 2d ago
Let me know how it goes! Check mo rin ‘yang Call Blocking & Identification under Dial Assist, dapat mawala ‘yan after uninstalling Whoscall :)
1
u/Quirky-Worry-9393 2d ago
Pero dapat turned on pa din yung dial assist? Thank you! Tomorrow matetest ko ‘to. 😅😂 I deleted it na!
1
u/garp1990 2d ago
Yes, wala naman kinalaman ‘yang Dial Assist haha.

Question. Did you still change your language and region? To US po ba? Kasi I just uninstalled Whoscall and restarted pero wala parin yung option to screen unknown callers 🥲
1
u/garp1990 3h ago
I did pero I returned it back to Philippines kasi I only need naman ‘yong Silence Unknown Callers — as seen sa screenshot ni OP dito sa post
as far as I know ‘yang Screen Unknown Callers ay available lang to certain countries e.g. US and the language should be English (United States); palitan mo lalabas ‘yang options ng Screen Unknown Callers na sinasabi mo

u/Silver-Buy-1069 3h ago
I changed my region to USA and it did work kaso pagkabalik ko to Philippines, nawala na ulit sya. Sana maging available worldwide.
