How to See Blocked Numbers on iPhone
You do not know which phone numbers you have blocked on your iPhone? You can easily check your closed number list using phone, messages and facetime settings on your phone. Let’s see how.
The list of blocked numbers will be the same regardless of the application you use to consult it.
Find the blocked numbers in the phone
To see your list of blocked phone numbers with the phone application, first open the Settings app on your iPhone. In Settings, press “Applications” at the bottom of the screen. Scroll the apps and select the “phone” option. On the “phone” page, scroll down and select “Blocked contacts”.
On the “Blocked Contacts” screen, you will see all your named numbered numbers. Press “Unknown” to see the blocked numbers of unknown appellants.
In addition to blocking numbers, did you know that you can configure your iPhone to prevent people from seeing your number when you make a call?
Search for blocked numbers in messages
To use messages to display your blocked numbers, open the Settings app on your iPhone, scroll down the screen and press “Applications”. Scroll the list of applications and select “messages”. In the “Text messaging” section, select “Blocked contacts”. The “Blocked Contacts” screen displays all your blocked numbers. Press “Unknown” to see the blocked numbers of unknown appellants.
If you want to prevent someone from sending you SMS, it’s easy to add people to this blocking list.
Find the numbers blocked in FaceTime
Checking the list of blocked numbers with FaceTime is also simple. To do this, open the Settings app on your iPhone, scroll down the screen and press “Applications”. Scroll the list of applications and select “Facetime”.
On the “FaceTime” page, scroll down the screen and press “Blocked contacts”. You will see the same list of your numbers blocked on the “Blocked Contacts” screen that opens.
If you haven’t used FaceTime for some time, it is worth taking a look at it. There are excellent facetime features that you could miss.
If a number you want to block does not appear in your blocked contact list, you can add a blocked contact directly from the Blocked Contacts screen. You can add a saved contact to the list or enter a number manually if it is not already saved in your contacts.
Access your blocked contact list using one of the above methods. Press “Add a blocked contact” at the top of the list. Enter the number or name name that you want to block in the “at:” field. If the name or number is already saved on your phone, the contact should appear below as you type.
Select the contact in the list and press “Block the contact”.
You can also press the ” +” icon at the top of the screen. Select a contact from your contact list. Contact is immediately added to the list of blocked contacts.
If the number you want to block is not saved in your contacts, enter the full phone number and press the Return key. Press “Block the contact” at the bottom of the screen and the number is added to the list of blocked contacts, classified in the “Unknown” section.
If the list of blocked contacts contains numbers or contacts that you no longer want to block, you can delete them from the list. This will allow these numbers to call you, send you a message or contact you again via FaceTime. There are several ways to unlock a number from this screen.
To delete the recorded numbers in your contacts, slide the contact to the left and press “Unlock”. You can also press the “Modify” button at the top right of the screen. Press the less red icon and select “Unlock” to delete the number of the blocked contacts. You can also press a blocked contact to open the contact sheet. Scroll down and press “Unlock the contact” to delete the contact from the blocked list.
To delete blocked numbers that are not saved as contacts on your phone, press the “Unknown” list. Slide your finger to the left on a number you want to delete and press “Unlock”. You can also press the “Modify” button in the upper right corner of the screen.
Press the red button less than the number you want to unlock, then press the “Unlock” button. You can also press any number in the list to open a contact sheet for this number. Scroll down and press “Unlock the contact” to delete it from the list.
Deleting a number from your blocked list is not the only way to unlock a number on your iPhone. You can also unlock numbers directly from the phone application, the messages, FaceTime app or the contacts application. The numbers that you block via one of these methods will always appear in the same list of blocked contacts.
