There's always that handful of people that, if given the option, we would rather not talk to on most occasions.
Sure you can typically "ignore" their calls and kick them to voicemail, but many folks are able to tell when a call has been screened manually. As a result, you're inevitably going to end up with some hurt feelings on the other end of the line.
But what if you could determine whose calls ring through and whose don't? If someone's call always goes straight to voicemail, he or she will likely think your phone is off or outside the service area.
The Android operating system has a nifty feature built-in, albeit somewhat hidden, that allows you just such freedoms.
In this guide, we'll show you how to gain a little more control over your incoming calls on a contact-by-contact basis.
From your home screen, tap the applications launcher
Scroll until you see the People application and tap it
Scroll until you find the contact that you'd like to send straight to voicemail, and tap to open the contact
Near the bottom of the contact page, find and tap on the Send to voicemail option
A pop-up will appear asking if you're sure you want to enable this feature.
Tap OK
