In July 2025, Apple released the Public Beta for iOS 26 with a host of new communication features, including opt-in screening tools for calls and messages designed to reduce interruptions and protect users against unwanted communication.
When enabled, Screen Unknown Senders introduces text filtering, spam detection, and gives users more control over who appears in their conversations in Apple’s native Messages application. On the inbound calling side, Screen Unknown Callers, when enabled, automatically screens unknown callers, prompting them for more information or automatically silencing them.
These changes could have broad implications for any business that uses SMS, MMS, RCS (Rich Communication Services) business messaging, or voice calling to reach their customers. Here’s what you need to know.
