Apple's iOS 26 includes a call-screening feature that lets iPhone users manage calls from unsaved numbers, including political campaign calls. Users can choose between three settings: allowing all calls through as before, requiring unknown callers to state their reason for calling before the phone rings, or silencing all unknown numbers directly to voicemail. The feature works on any iPhone compatible with iOS 26, including older models like the iPhone 14 Pro.
