Why is my iPhone silencing calls?

During the day my iPhone 12 Pro with iOS 16.1.1 does not have any Focus active but calls from phone numbers that are not in my contacts list are silenced.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

This is irrespective of Focus/DND.


You may turn on/off Silence Unknown Callers, go to Settings > Phone, then scroll down, tap Silence Unknown Callers, and turn on/off the feature. If ON, calls from unknown numbers are silenced and sent to your voicemail, and appear in your recent calls list.
