WhatsApp announced a new feature on Tuesday that automatically mutes incoming calls from unknown or unsaved numbers. This comes as part of a new privacy feature announced by Meta Platforms after recent reports of increasing spam calls.
To access this setting, users need to go to the ‘Privacy’ section in WhatsApp settings, select ‘Calls,’ and activate the ‘Silence Unknown Callers’ toggle. This feature aims to help users avoid spam, scams, and unwanted calls from strangers, enhancing their overall protection.
