I get many more than that and I still find my phone to be pretty usable.
The "one weird trick" here is to screen your incoming calls. Add all of your friends/family/work associates to your contacts and enable the setting on your phone that sends all other calls to voicemail. And then set your phone to notify you when you have new voicemail. I find that scammers/spammers almost never both with leaving voicemail but Real People generally will, or will follow up with a text.
- cmckn 5y agoI tried this, but after missing a handful of important calls from doctors offices, banks, etc. I had to allow unknown callers. It’s unfortunate that regulators in the US seem to have no desire to actually solve this problem.
