		SoftTalker on Feb 2, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The FCC wants to criminalize AI robocall spam All my "unknown sender" texts get filtered to a separate view, and do not create a notification. If I'm expecting a text from an unknown number (such as a 2FA code) I'll just open the "Unknown Senders" view. The rest of the unknown messages are ignored.

Unfortunately on iPhone you can't set some messages to unknown sender and some spam calls seem to be in known senders

Do you have “filter unknown senders” turned on?

Yes and that is how I know it does not work. There are senders I cannot get into known.
