Silence message notifications from unknown senders

Please help me figure out how to not receive notifications when I receive a text (SMS or iMessage) from someone that is not in a known sender. I have to click 6-7 times to block the sender and delete the message. Android does this so much better and this is the reason I am considering switching over. Please add this capability ASAP.

This is a user-to-user forum. Apple doesn't read here for suggestions. You can let them know what you'd like to see here:

Meanwhile, have you activated Settings>Messages>Unknown & Spam>Filter Unknown Senders?
