Spam calls are relentless, but the built-in Silence Unknown Callers setting is buried deep in your Phone settings and awkward to toggle. You want it on during focused work but off when you're expecting a delivery or call from an unfamiliar number. A silence unknown callers shortcut for iPhone lets you flip this setting on or off in one tap from your home screen, without digging through menus every time.
Tap the shortcut to toggle the Silence Unknown Callers setting on or off. The shortcut shows you the current state and flips it, confirming the change with a notification. Set up two shortcuts — one to enable, one to disable — and place them wherever you need them for quick access.
Go to getturin.com and describe your shortcut (e.g., 'Toggle silence unknown callers on or off').
