Block calls and texts
About blocking
If you don't want to receive calls or texts from a certain number, you can block it. When the number tries to
contact you, your phone will automatically decline the call or text.
You can still call or text a number you've blocked. But, you'll see Blocked on the listing in the Phone app
and will get a warning in the Messages app, because you won't receive a response or a return call unless
you unblock the number.
