Greetings pdsmith1,

If you are trying to receive a call from an unknown number, you will need to disable the feature to silence unknown callers.

Take care.

pdsmith1,

The feature is working as expected and per Dustin_R_308's previous message. However, you can check out possible third-party apps for blocking unwanted calls and some information on how to set those up in the section "Set up an app to filter and detect spam calls" from the article here: Detect and block spam phone calls

You can also use a different device to attempt to locate your iPhone. Use the Find My app to locate a missing device or item

Additionally, feel free to leave feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple

Cheers!

I was hoping that someone else had found a solution other than turning of the silence unknown caller feature. Probably too much to ask for Apple and Google to work out the issue. Even tried to download on of the skills but it didn’t work either.
