We all need family
time and quiet time. At this age, we all have mobile phones, and it is the
first thing we get distracted by. So, today I got you something that will
automatically silence all unknown calls. This step-by-step guideline will help
you silence all your unknown calls.
I hope this will
help you all.
Step 01
Open the “Shortcuts” application.
Step 02
Click “Automation,” then click “New Automation.”
Step 03
You need a specific
time to silence all unknown calls, so it depends on time.
So, Click “Time of Day.”
Step 04
When
Set the time you
want to silence all unknowing calls: "Sunrise,"
"Sunset,” or “Time of Day.”
Step 05
Repeat
Set the repeat time
to "Daily," “Weekly” (you have to select the
weekdays), or "Monthly” (you
have to select the date).
Step 06
Click run
immediately; then there is no need for your confirmation to run the action. You
can turn on or off the notification when starting the action. Then click "Next.”
Step 07
Now the time is set,
but we have to choose an action to run, so click “New Blank Automation,” then click “Add Action.”
Step 08
Here, you have to
search for “Set Silence Unknown Callers”
and click it. Check the action is “Turn
Silence Unknown Callers on.” If it is, click "Done.”
Step 09
Now the turn-on
action is set, but when it is turned on, we have to set up the turn-off time
too; otherwise, it will turn on forever.
So, click the “+” icon to create a new “Automation,” then click “Time of Day.”
Step 10
Now set the time
when you want to turn off silent, unknown callers. Then click "Next." The other setting is the
same as last time.
Step 11
Click “New Blank Automation,” then click “Add Action.”
Step 12
Like step 8, search
for “Set Silence Unknown Callers”
and click it. but this time you have to click on “On” to activate the turn-off mode. Check the action is “Turn Silence Unknown Callers Off.” If
it is, click "Done.”
Now that everything
is set up, when the time has passed, all unknown calls will be silenced and
reactivated when the turn-off time has passed. If you want to delete this
action, hold on to it, then swap from right to left, and it will be deleted.
I hope you will be able to spend time with
your family.
I hope you learn something.
Good Luck!
