Why has Verizon discontinued "anonymous call rejection"?
It was part of the Verizon "Smart Family Plan", which is also gone.
Any reason for this?
Our Verizon Family app is still available! We can take a look at the parental controls and restrictions for any unwanted calls with you. We are sending over a private note to get additional details together.

The "Verizon Family app" DOES NOT HAVE the "anonymous call rejection" feature.
Try again.
I think this used to be a feature in older Android versions, but is now gone. If you don't want to block all unknown callers using your phone app (open the phone app > go to the 3 dots > Settings > Block Numbers > toggle on "Block calls from unknown numbers"), you'd have to try a 3rd party app.
For iPhone, you can silence unknown callers and they will go to voicemail.
block private numbers not in contact list.
