Out of the blue, my iPhone started to recognize my brothers incoming calls as spam risk and autoblocked his number. We had been speaking for years using the same numbers.
I have unblocked him now but how can I prevent this from happening in the future?
iPhone 13, iOS 15
Your iPhone by itself cannot automatically block spam calls without a 3rd party app installed, so check for any such apps, including any from your cellular network provider.. Also make sure you didn’t accidentally add his number to the blocked list: Settings/Phone/Blocked Contacts, and while there check SMS/Call Reporting. Note that your carrier can also block spam calls, so check with them.
