Apple is updating the layout of the iPhone’s phone app because, hey, it’s a telephone too, remember! 

I’ve always thought the Phone app has been a little left behind, so making it more intuitive is good news.

Call Screening tech will now answer calls for unknown numbers for you. The caller can start talking while the text appears on your screen to see if it’s worth to pick up or if it is the spam call you expect.

Another new feature, Hold Assist, will keep you on hold with a service and call you back when the person is ready to talk to you.

This is great – and features you could get on a Google Pixel for years (just saying).
