WhatsApp will now allow you to easily ignore spam calls

WhatsApp has announced a new feature allowing users to automatically silence calls from unknown numbers. The “Silence Unknown Callers” feature is currently rolling out to users on Android and iOS.

To enable the feature, users must go to their WhatsApp settings and tap “Privacy.” Under “Calls,” they will see a new option called “Silence Unknown Callers.” Toggling this option will automatically silence all calls from numbers that are not saved in the user’s contact list.

Users can still see missed calls from unknown numbers in their call log, but they will not receive any notification sounds or vibrations. They can also still view the missed calls by going to WhatsApp’s “Calls” tab.

The new “Silence Unknown Callers” feature is a welcome addition to WhatsApp, as it will help users reduce the number of spam calls they receive. Spam calls can be annoying and disruptive, and they can also be a security risk. By silencing unknown callers, users can reduce their exposure to these risks.

In addition to the “Silence Unknown Callers” feature, the WhatsApp blog has announced several other features in development. These features include the ability to add up to 512 people to a group chat, the ability to send files up to 2GB in size, and the ability to create polls in group chats.

These new features will be rolled out to users in the coming months.
