Feature description

I would definitely like to use this feature inside of phone app. Perhaps 98% of the time this is exactly what I want to do. And, until now, I have been using an app specifically to do this.

So far, I have not found a way to do this. Can anyone point me at a mechanism? My phone is Android 12 and is rooted. So I can send an intent, etc from something like Tasker.

Thanks!

Why do you want this feature?

On some occasions I need to not block this way because I expect a call from a number I do not yet know. With the current app I am using, there is a Quick Settings Tile that allows me to easily turn the blocking off/on. And if I am able to do that sort of thing using the phone app I can stop using the call blocking app.

Additional information

Since I am rooted, I find I can at least use Tasker to create a Q/S tile that runs a task that launches the call blocking settings activity.

am start org.fossify.phone/org.fossify.commons.activities.ManageBlockedNumbersActivity

Would much prefer something built-in.

I also note there is a service:

org.fossify.phone/org.fossify.phone.services.SimpleCallScreeningService

that seems like it might have something to do with all this. But I never see it in the Running Processes list. So maybe not.
