That puts the user on alert, likely making them less susceptible to attacks. This matters given recent research from the\u00a0Global Anti-Scam Alliance\u00a0showed that consumers lost roughly $442 billion to scams in the past year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0\u201cProtecting people from scam calls on Android was only ever half the picture, and iPhone users deserve that same level of defense,\u201d says Domininkas Virbickas, product director at\u00a0NordVPN. \u201cOur job is to make sure that wherever people are, whatever device they use, they have a real line of defense.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How it works<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The feature looks at call patterns and metadata to spot potential scams without ever touching your actual conversations. It means your calls stay private while the feature runs quietly in the background without requiring an active VPN connection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To set the feature up users must open the NordVPN iPhone app, navigate to the \u201cProducts hub\u201d tab, choose \u201cCall Protection\u201d, and toggle the feature on. The app will then guide them through updating the necessary iPhone settings. Once setup is complete, Call Protection runs silently in the background, providing real-time scam alerts, even when the VPN is not in use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0You can follow me on social media!
