I don't see them anywhere either.

If you're on a Verizon carrier version phone, they block that functionality.

It's under phone settings on my Unlocked Note 20 Ultra running on T-Mobille.

I am on t-mobile branded phone and don't have that

I think the key may be having an unlocked model.

In phone dialer settings on Unlocked Verizon. There is a submenu also for more specific settings.

I have that submenu also but didn't post a screenshot. Thanks for adding it.

I never have enabled the Samsung Smart Call as T-Mobile has its own spam control & advanced options with Hiya. I thought they might conflict.

Yeah this i believe is only unlocked version , go to phone app tap its settings and enable.

I'm on unlocked but with AT&T SIM. I think AT&T must block it when their Carriers settings are installed/updated. I don't have that setting.

Now that I think about it AT&T provides AT&T Call Protect for free and that is powered by Hiya which I have installed so I guess the Samsung one wouldn't be any different or better.

On Sprint with unlocked Note 20 Ultra and it's there exactly as shown in the previous screen shots. It works amazingly well, very pleased.

Yes. Verizon requires a $3 per month fee to block spam.

No I'm on unlocked Att and it has it.

Verizon requires $3.00/month to block spam but it doesn't work for crap. It's a waist of money. Has anyone tried the Google phone app for spam blocking? When I had my pixel phone google blocked spam and robocalls really well.

I never check my phone's setting. Thanks for sharing this, folks. I usually just ignore any calls from unfamiliar numbers. Most of the time, I also checked on Google or sites like http://phonebook.ai to see if people have reported those numbers.

Yes. Verizon requires a $3 per month fee to block spam.

Or as part of your insurance if VZW.

That's correct, ATT offers this via app Call Protection. Works really well.
