How do I turn off Call Screening on iPhone 13 with iOS 26?

Go to settings>phone app>screen unknown callers>never I enabled it by agreeing to it when it popped up and then couldn’t find the button after that to stop it. This stops it.

Try to open Settings, and in the search field at the bottom, type "unknown." See if the Silence Unknown Callers menu appears in the results.

I found a solution that worked for me. Based on this YouTube video, the Call Screening feature may appear or not depending on the region set on your device.

So for those who activated it and want to deactivate it, you can try this. When I checked, it was already deactivated in my current region. Here’s the link for reference: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=suQ5KAAEotk

Just noting: this is not an official Apple method, but it shows how region settings can affect which features appear.

I turned off iOS 26 on my iPhone 13. Go to settings. Scroll to the bottom and click apps. Scroll down and click on Phone. Scroll down to call screening. Click on Never.

i'm using iphone 14 base model but it seems that the screen unknown callers are not in the phone settings. i accidentally tapped agreed when i saw the notif in the phone. but when i wanted to disable this, it is not there.

Settings > Apps > Phone > (scroll down about 2 screens) Screen Unknown Callers [Never | Ask Reason | Silence]

This option Screen unknown callers is not available in my iPhone 14pro, ios 26, I accidentally enabled the feature after system update but I wish to disable it

Same, there is no such button.
