How to unblock unknown calls on iPhone

I have found out that if you go on settings- then screen time- then communication limit- then make sure both screen time and down time are set to ‘everyone’

Go to settings

scroll to bottom where it says apps

click on apps

scroll down to phone

click on phone

scroll down to silence unknown callers

click on that and you turn it off and on

I found the the FOCUS setting was the cause of blocked / unknown / private numbers not being allowed to answer.

This is now resolved.

I have tried the various method on my new iPhone 15 to get important calls todo with my health but one works could it be a sim problem even though Apple just put old sim in new phone I am really bad at tech stuff so bear with me and I thank people in advance for any suggestions that might help thanks again
