I’m rude to debt collectors who call me trying to collect debts from people who happen to once have had the same phone number as I once did. Like, I’m not who you’re trying to collect from, fuck off.
I’m also rude to generally any scam caller, they’re some of the few people I take great pleasure in telling off because I can get away with it. They’re scammy assholes, what’re they gonna do? Cry to the authorities? Knowing that they’re pieces of shit who scam people out of money? Good fucking luck.
By automatically declines, you mean you have the assistant answer, then you select your response from that screen, right? It annoys me that I even have to screen the call at all, but I guess it’s better than what you get on most phones.
No, it will do so automatically - could just be the setting configuration I have, but I don’t have to actually bring it up. Even if I’m using my phone when the call comes in, I’ll get a notification that says “Screening unknown call” and it’ll decline on its own. If I click the notification it brings up the active call screen dialog and I can watch it in real time / select the options myself if I want to.
I’m not sure why yours isn’t doing so automatically, perhaps double check your settings in the phone app? I can’t remember if I had to explicitly flip the “automatic” setting in there originally.
