call screening
Call screening is a process where incoming phone calls are reviewed before the recipient answers. This allows individuals to decide whether to accept, reject, or send calls to voicemail. The caller’s information, such as their phone number and potentially their name, is displayed, helping the recipient identify unknown or unwanted callers. Many smartphones and phone services offer built-in screening features, allowing users to block spam or telemarketing calls. This enhances privacy and helps users manage their time by filtering out calls that may be distracting or unimportant.

Call screening is the process of evaluating incoming phone calls to determine their importance or urgency before answering. This can involve identifying the caller's number, playing a pre-recorded message to screen for specific responses, or using an app that decides whether to let the call through based on criteria like the caller’s identity or past interactions. The goal is to filter out unwanted calls, such as spam or telemarketing, allowing users to focus on important communications and enhance their overall calling experience.
