Did you know that on your Nokia Windows Phone (since GDR2 and Amber) you're able to block unwanted contact from numbers through SMS and call filtering? It's a neat settings area, providing you with some power to prevent people from contacting you who you wish not to do so. Today, we've been alerted to a small update being pushed to the store.

Call+SMS filter has been bumped to version 1.7.1.4, which includes just general fixes and improvements. While you can't get excited for new features, it's good to see the manufacturer addressing issues consumers are experiencing.

You can check for updates for the system app on supported Lumia Windows Phones by hitting this link, scanning the QR code below or using an app like SysApp Pusher. Thanks to everyone who tipped us!
