Unknown numbers

BazzaS — Tue, 22 Nov 2022 18:36:10 GMT

I have a Galaxy S8. I have enabled 'block unknown numbers' . Will this prevent a call from a number that is not in my contacts ?

I want only to block calls from 'private numbers' and 'number witheld'.

Thanks

" Blocking Unknown Numbers. "

" You can block unknown numbers in your Phone settings by adding them to your auto-reject list.

Please note: While most people choose to block unknown or withheld numbers in order to reduce nuisance calls, you may also block genuine callers who have withheld their number for legitimate reasons if you block unknown numbers. "
