Restrict calls to Contacts?

[Agunat]

Is there any way to setup the phone app on my Galaxy A15 to restrict incoming calls to only those in my Contacts list and send all others to voicemail? Thanks... Bob

You can use the Do not disturb option. You can create a favorite list and choose from the options there.

Do not disturb kills everything. I just want to filter call to ALL my contacts, not just those I choose. I have hundreds of contacts.

You can set up DND to allow calls from all contacts, selected contacts, or favorite contacts. You can do the same for messages and notifications. It only kills eveything if you want it to kill everything. You can also set modes with different configurations of DND, for those times when you want to kill everything or only let select things through. Each instance of DND is distinct from the others.

Please elaborate specifically how this can be done because Verizon says it is impossible to do. The ONLY thing that I want it to do is send all calls not in my contact list to my voicemail. I cannot select each contact individually as there are hundreds.

Just configure a mode, call it what you like. Add do not distube and configure that mode's DND to allow your contacts. Then turn on the mode manually, and don't turn it off unless you want to switch modes. Settings/modes and routines/custom

Sorry I couldn't help you more, I hope you find a way to your need.

[Agunat]

I hope I do too. But I think that the only way I can will be to download an app filled with advertising.

You can set your phone in block numbers setting to "block calls from unknown numbers".

That blocks private or no caller id calls
