    I guess it’s called Live Voicemail and it’s been on iPhones since iOS 17.

    I just assumed it was some Android feature first and they were 5 years behind implementing like so many other things on the iPhone.

      Android kinda has that. There’s call screen where the phone asks why you’re calling and the user can follow along, potentially pressing a button to prompt for more details, to pickup, or to send the caller to voicemail.

      It’s integrated into the spam blocking. Usually spam calls just don’t say anything so it hangs up on them, so I don’t actually know how it would handle a human telemarketer.
