Nobody likes them, and phone companies are doing what they can to minimize them. People using WhatsApp are also prone to receive a ton of annoying calls throughout the day, but Mark Zuckerberg just announced a solution (Android Central). WhatsApp will automatically silence unknown callers.<br \/>\nA lot of people use WhatsApp as their main mode of communication. It\u2019s one of the most popular messaging platforms in the world, and it\u2019s got a ton of features to make using it a treat. However, this means that users are liable to receive a ton of spam calls throughout the day.<br \/>\nWhatsApp will silence callers from unknown numbers<br \/>\nSpam calls get so bad that, if you get a call from an unknown number, it\u2019s most likely to be a spam caller. This is a huge bother because no one wants their day interrupted by a call from someone who they don\u2019t want to talk to.<br \/>\nSo, WhatsApp now has a solution. This is a feature that\u2019s been in testing for a little while, and it\u2019s finally making its way to the public. This feature will automatically silence incoming calls from unknown numbers. This will keep those numbers out of your way.<br \/>\nWhen this feature is enabled, your phone won\u2019t even ring when getting these calls and you won\u2019t see them. It\u2019ll be as though they never happened.<br \/>\nNow, this is something that could backfire, as you can imagine. Blocking\u00a0all\u00a0of the calls can mean that you\u2019ll miss calls from genuine people who you want to talk to.<br \/>\nHowever, you\u2019re able to check your call logs for a list of the calls that came in. If you feel like you missed an important call, or if you just want to check up on your logs, you can check them out.<br \/>\nIn order to enable this feature, you\u2019ll want to go to your\u00a0Privacy\u00a0settings and tap on the\u00a0Calls\u00a0button. When you do that, you\u2019ll be taken to a page with one option at the top. Once you flip that toggle, you\u2019ll be blocking all of the unknown callers.<br \/>\nThe post WhatsApp wants unknown callers out of your hair appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/WhatsApp-Logo-3-AH.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spam calls!
