Spam Call Reporting

It’s long been possible to report spam text messages to Apple and supported carriers, but now iOS 26 enhances that with the ability to report spam calls in much the same way.

This option is only available if you’ve received a voicemail message from the caller. The voicemail section has been expanded with two new buttons below the playback controls to add the caller to your contacts or report the message as spam.

Tapping Report Spam will send the voicemail to Apple, presumably to help train the filters it uses for its new call screening features in iOS 26. You’ll get a pop-up menu asking if you want to merely report the voicemail or delete it at the same time.

Calls from numbers that don’t leave a voicemail message can’t be reported as spam, although they can still be blocked as in prior iOS versions.
