Feature description

Hello and thank you for reading my request.
I'd like to have a setting which you can toggle to delete your calls that are older then a set period of time, for example, 2 weeks.
I think that having this option opt in would be better, so users aren't left wondering why their calls get deleted automatically

Why do you want this feature?

I thought that this feature would have both a privacy benefit (since people you hand your phone to, wouldn't be able to see everyone you called) and also help with storage space (by deleting old calls)

Additional information

On a more technical note, this feature would require a way to check the time that has passed since a call has been made (already present, since we can see when a call has been made in the call history section of the app), the setting itself (from which, as I have already said, us users can decide after how long to delete) and a way to check if a call has been made before the amount of time specified by the user.

Example:
The user toggled the setting and decided that all calls that have been made before a week, should be deleted.
Then, the program will check every once in a while if a call was had a week ago.
If so, then it will be deleted, otherwise, it'll be kept.
Thank you for your time

💯 I agree with this requirement.
Absolutely, this is a bare minimum feature for call log.
Auto-delete frequency :
Never, a week, a month, 3 month.
