Don't bother with call screening.

I've had it in place for maybe half dozen unknown callers this week. Pretty cool what it's doing, but I've only noticed it as the screen happened to light up. Kind of wish you are still notified of the incoming call while its doing the screening.
Yeah works perfectly for me, haven't missed anything but spam. As always, personal experiences are anecdotal.
I’ve turned it off.
It seemed like a good idea and it worked for the first few calls. But when I had a couple of domestic appliances delivered the driver tried phoning first just to confirm that he was on his way and to ensure I’d be in. It just didn’t work in those circumstances.

this feature can be a game changer but I keep missing calls.
Gotta test it further. Sometimes it notifies me that someone (with their name) is waiting and sometimes it doesn’t.
I notice with the watch on 26 as well now I do get the same notification on the wrist. Just wish it was an active notification from the moment the call occurs rather than after the person has left their name and are waiting.

This feature is blocking all calls from hospital for me. Even after turning all the relevant settings on and then off again, the calls are still ringing half a ring or not at all then going to voicemail. I tried resetting network settings but haven't tested behaviour yet since I'm now forwarding my calls to a more reliable phone... this is a serious bug, not sure if others are seeing it too.
I noticed the settings on the Phone app on other devices don't seem to sync, could that be the source of the problem?

I have given it a try and one of my unknown calls still went through
Even it wasn’t screened in any way
